Scouting Report
A legitimate nose tackle who's very long and very strong on the interior defensive line. Uses his fantastic raw size (including height, wingspan, and bulk) to put major pressure on the line. Commands double teams and can really move smaller opponents. Has pretty good awareness and will adjust to stuff the run. Not very fluid or fast, and lumbers later in games when he wears down. Doesn't have the speed to shoot through gaps for regular sacks. Struggles significantly when forced outside, as he's not quick enough to recover well. Must keep working on his technique.
Long Range Potential: Nose tackle with good upside.
