POSITIVE
Angular, well-built frame. Very versatile as he lined up at multiple positions along the DL. Scrappy, hungry, ravenous approach to the game. Gets out of the blocks quickly. Attacks with early, skilled hands. Very powerful for his size. Wins against blocks with a mixture of power and quickness and has outstanding athleticism.
Attacks both the edges and can crank up a bull rush. Uses a mixture of moves in his arsenal to get around blocks. Hands and feet work in unison. Has lightning-quick spin move he can access to unhinge from block and find new life in his rush.
Relentless approach combined with athleticism makes block recoveries extremely difficult in run or pass. Will sniff out gaps and make himself skinny into the backfield. Very good pursuit speed and range as playmaker.
NEGATIVE
Considered a “TWEENER“. Length is below average as five tech. Plays with inconsistent pad level. Needs to get bigger and stronger through his lower body. Tends to play taller as play rolls along. Can get washed out of plays by strong down blocks. Hands need more consistent pop behind them. Overall play can be improved. Gets engulfed at times. Snap-count guesser with seven offsides penalties in 2016.
