Good

– Gets off the line like he’s shot out of a cannon
– Disruptive run defender
– Has a go-to spin that works a good majority of the time
– Great size for a defensive end, falling in the 88th percentile for height and 72nd percentile for weight
– Good production and improving every season of college
– Great age, being only 21 on draft day with no worrying injuries
– Plays the passing lane as the quarterback enters his throwing motion
– Receives a lot of double teams, which opens opportunities for teammates
– Shows off a solid long-arm
– Pretty safe player with a good ceiling if developed and a solid floor if not

Bad

– Struggles with using power as the main part of his game
– Needs refinement with hand fighting to improve his bag of moves
– Just an okay bend that limits his rush
– Needs to improve coverage ability for a team to trust him in that role
– At times, he can go through a pass-rushing slump where he won’t generate much pressure on consecutive snaps
– Only has generated two turnovers in his last 34 games
– Lacks effort once a double team comes his way
