Strengths
- Does a nice job using his eyes to read and react quickly. Smart, disciplined defender who makes plays on the ball and contesting throws.
- Has a solid frame with a strong lower body and much improved bulk. Fluid and rangy with the coordination and loose hips to quickly change directions.
- Does a very good job of reading the eyes of the quarterback and reacting with good field awareness and ball skills.
- Versatile with experience as an in-the-box safety and in-man coverage.
- A well-put-together athlete with a strong build. Plays fast and flies to the ball with accurate angles.
Weaknesses
- Not consistent with his footwork, is a bit choppy in transition and is slow to find the ball on deep routes.
- Has suspect instincts in coverage and needs to show better pre snap recognition.
- Opens his hips too early and allows himself to get turned around in coverage.
- Not an explosive player and needs to show better bend and flexibility in his drops - plays too high.
- Lacks the timed speed to mirror and maintain contact downfield. Loses the ball on slow-developing plays and has a tendency to reach and grab when he gets antsy.
