Scouting Report
An above-average source of sacks who has a knack for getting past blockers. A true powerhouse in the strength department and can manhandle opponents. Gets a good push off the snap, and has enough straight-line speed to succeed as an NFL end. Also solid as a leaper, giving him upside in pass disruption. Can be a more prolific and powerful tackler, especially considering his above-average ability as a pass rusher. Not ideally-sized overall for the NFL end position, which hurts his positional versatility.
Long Range Potential: Solid defensive end (when healthy).
