Scouting Report
Is an intimidating presence on the defensive front--they do not come much taller or with a greater wingspan along the D-line. Has evolved into a solid run defender; he leverages his height and reach to manhandle blockers and deny daylight. Is quite agile for his size and mobile enough to drop back in coverage against running backs and tight ends. Is somewhat inconsistent as a pass rusher; rudimentary moves limit his ability to create pressure. His sack production can be very hit or miss, and appears to be in decline.
Long Range Potential: Run-defending interior defensive lineman.
