Strengths
  • Extremely aggressive to come up and put his body in traffic to make tackles.
  • Flashes intimidating attitude and will crush tiptoeing receivers across the middle.
  • Can deliver the big hit and isn't afraid to jump inside to slow the ball.
  • Good hustle player who puts himself in the action when he's not directly involved. Knows how to use his height and vertical leap.
  • Trusts his eyes with very good awareness. Has very good reaction skills to break quickly on the ball.
Weaknesses
  • Too slow for a cornerback and average size and bulk for safety but has room to add strength to his frame.
  • Needs to tighten his angles in pursuit. Needs to show better tackling technique to consistently finish.
  • Lacks instincts with shaky awareness, is overaggressive and too often bites on fakes and misdirection.
  • Needs to improve his footwork and balance in coverage. Transitions out of his backpedal too early and doesn't look natural moving in reverse.
  • Has suspect instincts in coverage and needs to show better pre snap recognition.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
