Official Bio
|
Strengths:
Has a cut physique with the frame to get even bigger...Long arms...A smooth and fluid athlete...Good strength...Has a good motor and does a nice job in pursuit...Is stout at the point of attack and does an excellent job against the run...Real smart with terrific awareness...Has some potential in coverage...Versatile..A hard worker with good intangibles...Had his best season as a senior and still has some upside.
Weaknesses:
Has decent timed speed but isn't very explosive...Lacks a burst to close...Is not a great natural pass rusher...Doesn't use his hands well...Not overly physical...Does not play with a nasty demeanor and may lack a killer instinct...Marginal production and was a bit of a one year wonder...Has some durability issues...Underachiever?
Notes:
Could be a base end in a 4-3 scheme, a 3-4 end or a 3-4 outside linebacker...Tore his ACL in 2005 and dealt with a shoulder injury in 2006...Late emerging prospect who really began to pick up a lot of momentum in scouting circles late in the 2007 season...Might never be a star or a double-digit sack guy at the next level but his versatility and promise will make him a relatively valuable commodity on Draft Day.
