Drafted: 2021: ROUND: 7 - Pick Number: 253 (DEN)
Strengths
- Quarterbacks and ballcarriers feel his strength when he plants them in the backfield.
- 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.
- Played with lean and leverage against the run, tough for one man to move (sometimes double-teams, too).
- Good weight-room strength, which translates onto the field in terms of his anchor.
- 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.
Weaknesses
- Isn't able to consistently shed blocks and makes plays in the hole.
- Not a quick-twitch player. Won't consistently threaten the edge. Few explosive qualities and lacks great initial burst or overall range for the position.
- Misses tackles, even when he gets his hands on the ballcarrier. Needs to improve hand placement and technique.
- Possesses excellent weight-room strength, although it doesn't always translate onto his play.
- He struggles with leverage off the snap and plays too tall, limiting his effectiveness as a pass rusher.
