Official Bio
|
Strengths:
Decent size and bulk...Smart with great instincts and awareness...Intense with a non-stop motor...Does a decent job of taking on and shedding blockers..Will come up and fill versus the run..Hard worker and team leader with excellent intangibles.
Weaknesses:
Stiff and is not a great natural athlete...Timed speed is well below average...Does not have fluid hips and is a liability in coverage...Just a marginal tackler...Isn't very powerful...Has trouble in space...Range is real limited...Doesn't have much upside.
Notes:
Spent 2003 and 2004 on a Mormon Mission in Chile....His wife, Ann, gave birth to their first child, son Tyton, in April of '07..Was essentially a four-year starter in the Pac-10...Has experience at both inside and outside linebacker...Missed some time with an ACL injury in 2005...Classic overachiever who is a good football player but does not have the physical tools you look for...At best a two-down thumper at the next level and in reality he's probably best suited for backup / special teams duty.
