Strengths
- Good short-area foot quickness with very good footwork.
- Has smooth body control, reliable hands and natural ball skills to adjust to off-target throws and make impressive catch.
- Has enough speed to challenge the seam but does not possess elite top-end speed.
- Comes off the snap quick, low and hard. Runs low and accelerates quickly.
- Can seal the edge as an in-line blocker. Not an intimidator but has enough strength, leverage and a solid base.
Weaknesses
- Inconsistent with his release off the line of scrimmage.
- Will never be a dominant blocker because of frame. Can be bull rushed.
- A glider, moves faster than he appears but lacks the top-end speed to be a real threat down the seam.
- Tight hips, limited long speed and isn't naturally explosive. Not an in-line blocker with a weak base.
- Has only average size and strength and lacks an imposing frame.
