Scouting Report
Displays an impressive combination of height, strength and straightaway speed, which makes him a potentially dangerous edge rusher for offensive linemen to deal with. While ideally suited to play as a defensive end in a 4-3 scheme, he could conceivably line up as an outside linebacker in a 3-4 scenario. His work against the run is generally solid. Needs to improve his first-step quickness in order to maximize production at the highest level. Is still a somewhat raw athlete whose measurables outshine his on-field productivity. Needs to step it up a notch or two in terms of becoming a dominant pass rusher.
Long Range Potential: Versatile edge rusher with upside.
