Official Bio
|
Strengths:
Has excellent instincts and awareness...Reads and reacts quickly...Intense with a great motor...Reliable tackler and will deliver the big hit...Does a great job of filling versus the run...Really tough, physical and aggressive...Smart with a high football IQ...Hard worker and team leader..Has a ton of experience...Extremely productive.
Weaknesses:
Does not have the size or bulk that you look for...Timed speed and quickness are well below average...Has trouble taking on and shedding blockers...He lacks fluid hips, doesn't match up and is essentially a liability in coverage...Range is severely limited...Has some health and durability concerns....Does not have a lot of upside.
Notes:
Was a four-year starter with the Hokies..Suffered through an injury-riddled senior campaign (wrist, arm, knee)....Classic case of a very good football player who just does not have the physical tools to project well to the next level..Profiles as a two down run thumper...An overachiever who could potentially earn a NFL roster spot due to his intangibles but probably won't be more than a backup / special teamer.
