Scouting Report: Strengths
- Isaac has enough speed to chase and run in pursuit. He has the overall athleticism to hold up in space when dropping into coverage.
- With a powerful lower body and the ability to hold up at the point of attack as a run defender, Isaac is remarkably instinctive.
- His core flexibility and balance are excellent, and he has prototypical length.
- Isaac shows good speed and closing burst when blitzing.
- He’s explosive coming out of his stance, and he shows the ability to ward off blockers with quick, violent hands.
- Has the dynamic athleticism to be a force on the edge. He’s a fluid mover with bend-and-dip flexibility as a pass rusher, and he uses his long arms to ward off blockers.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- While Isaac moves well laterally, he doesn’t always get there in pursuit.
- Isaac remains a bit raw, as he is inconsistent with his hand use and lacks violence in his hands
- He could stand to be more violent as a tackler in the run game, as he too often allows backs to run through his arm tackles. Isaac also has limited experience dropping into coverage.
