Strengths

• Flashes upper-body strength to rip and has the punch to push through interior linemen on stunts and twists.
• Combines strength and footwork to fill holes inside, as well. Recovers from cut blocks or falling on his way to make a tackle.
• Strong tackler. Has good power in hands and can anchor, shed, and chase.
• Plays with leverage at the point of attack whether inside or outside. Keeps eyes in the backfield when inside; moves linemen to either side with strong hands.
• Average quickness and power and his bull rush will be stonewalled. Comes off the snap high, losing leverage.

Weaknesses

• Lacks the speed to turn the corner consistently and is too often washed out by stronghanded blockers.
• Average athletically with average straight line speed and tight hips. Not a natural bender. Lacks secondary pass-rush moves.
• Misses tackles, even when he gets his hands on the ballcarrier. Needs to improve hand placement and technique.
