Official Bio

Strengths:
Excellent athleticism...Very good speed...Quick with a burst..Terrific range and can make plays sideline-to-sideline...Does a great job in pursuit...Smooth in coverage with fluid hips...Great change of direction...A good leader...Has a lot of experience.

Weaknesses:
Does not have the size or bulk that you look for...A marginal tackler...Needs to get stronger...He struggles to take on and shed blockers...Questionable instincts and awareness...Can be too aggressive at times..Didn't play against elite competition.

Notes:
Was a three-year starter...He played both SAM and WILL during his time with the Trojans...Related to Michael Wallace, who played college football at the University of Michigan...Missed some time with a shattered collarbone in 2006....Has a lot of special teams potential....Needs to land with a team that is willing to sacrifice size for speed but he could be a pleasant late round surprise..An underrated prospect.
