Scouting Report: Strengths
- Banks locates the ball quickly, and Banks shows good instincts when dropping into zone coverage.
- He has the quickness and flexibility to consistently dip and bend around the edge.
- He can move laterally and chase in pursuit. A tough, violent tackler with a non-stop motor, he also shows good awareness when dropping into coverage.
- He shows impressive burst and enough quickness to occasionally threaten the edge as a pass rusher.
- He has an excellent motor and shows the stamina to last deep into the fourth quarter.
- Banks has an excellent feel for working off blockers and knowing how and when to counter as the play goes on.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Banks also shows some stiffness when trying to bend the edge, often getting pushed past the pocket — Banks seems more comfortable countering back inside.
- He lacks the speed of a chase and- tackle guy. Banks lacks twitch as a pass rusher and lacks the feet and flexibility to threaten around the edge.
- He’s unlikely to hold up in coverage as a linebacker, which will dissuade 3-4 teams from being interested in him.
