Scouting Report
Highly well-rounded on the D-line thanks to his skills, fluid athleticism, and great frame. Has elite length with huge hands, helping him disengage well from blockers and get to ball-carriers quickly. Very good against the run, yet also is a threat for sacks and does a superb job versus the pass. Not all that quick or explosive off the snap or in space, despite solid long speed and sideline-to-sideline mobility. Will need to add significant muscle mass to play regularly on the pro D-line, yet doesn't have ideal agility and burst to play regularly at linebacker.
Long Range Potential: Well-rounded pass rusher with great length.
