Scouting Report
Pretty well-rounded in the middle of the defense: solid, productive, and consistent as a tackler, and has great foot speed for an inside linebacker. Also a superb leaper, which helps him contest passes in coverage. Can be more productive in the sacks department. Doesn't have ideal size for an NFL inside linebacker. Needs to bulk up a little to compete as a pro, as he lacks raw strength (leading to questions about stamina).
Long Range Potential: Solid inside linebacker with some starter tools.
