A stocky powerhouse, he possesses the critical mass and low center of gravity sought in a nose tackle/interior lineman. Is deployed almost exclusively against the run; he is capable of weighing anchor and occupying multiple blockers. Sidesteps opponents to make plays in the backfield; he is nimble for his size, with the active feet and powerful hands required for short area battles. Is a bit too one-dimensional: he lacks pass-rushing traits and is unlikely to evolve beyond a specialist role. | |
Long Range Potential: | Run-stuffing interior defensive lineman. |
