THE GOOD

— Large, sturdy frame with good length
— Versatile athlete that can play with his hands in the dirt inside or in a two-point stance out on the edge
— Very good burst and build-up speed, moves well for his frame
— Great use of hands, makes the most of his length with long arm and other moves
— Had a wide array of pass rush moves in his tool belt, allowing him to win with speed or power
— Solid anchor in the run game
— Great short-area quickness to execute twist stunts or convert speed to power

THE BAD

— Plays with high pad level
— Doesn’t have the size to anchor against double teams
— Doesn’t string moves together very well, stalls out if his first move fails
— Questions about competitive toughness, takes some plays off
— Hasn’t mastered any one position with playing all across the line
— His frame and athleticism are versatile, but what is his best position fit?
