Strengths

• Provides some secondary interior pass rush, getting most penetration when playing three technique.
• Played with good leverage, even on the nose, despite average bulk. Hustle defender with a good bull rush inside that can close and get home when quarterbacks leave the pocket.
• Provides some secondary interior pass rush, getting most penetration when playing three technique.
• Strong tackler. Has good power in hands and can anchor, shed, and chase.
• Delivers a strong punch and uses his hands to shed blocks to make plays in the hole or outside the box. Uses lower-body strength to anchor inside.

Weaknesses

• Appears to have only average arm length, and ballcarriers too often are able to shield him with a stiff-arm.
• Must improve hand use and read-and-react skills. Lacks the violent hands to shed and can be eliminated by double-team blocks.
• Good strength, though his marginal arm length limits his ability to grab hold of ballcarriers as they run by.
• Might be limited to one-gap systems. Agility isn't a question but misses tackles when he doesn't square and break down.
• Lacks closing speed and inconsistent quickness off the snap prevents him from being an elite pass rusher.
