A long, strong, high-motor producer on the inside D-line. Regularly collapses the pocket, doing a nice job of shedding blocks. Keeps his feet churning throughout the play, and is efficient and smart (taking good angles to the quarterback). Solid picking up the run, and will get his hands up against the pass. Not ideally suited to a role as a classic edge rusher, as he's not particularly fast or explosive. More of an interior penetrator but doesn't have the low, fluid base to excel at holding down the middle with double teams and run-stuffs. Does several things well but isn't a standout in any one. | |
Long Range Potential: | Rotational defensive lineman. |
