Scouting Report
Brings the bulk to line up as a 3-4 D-lineman and draw double teams. He's blessed with very long arms, helping him win in-close battles on the line. Doesn't have the massive hands needed to manhandle many opponents. Slow-footed and limited making plays out in space. Really struggles to get an explosive step off the snap. Agility and footwork are not strengths. Lacks ideal quickness overall.
Long Range Potential: Rotational defensive lineman.
