Strengths

• Gets an effective jam on the receiver and has loose enough hips to turn and run.
• Transitions well from coverage to close on the ball. Strong hands, quick reactions for the interceptions.
• Closing speed and willingness to make the big hit make him one of the more versatile safeties in the class.
• Takes accurate angles to the ballcarrier. A strong, aggressive tackler and doesn't back down against the run.
• Should excel as a zone defender because of his closing speed to wrap receivers after the catch.
• Plays the ball as if it was thrown for him, showing burst back to the ball as well as good timing for the jump ball.
• Has good cover skills, athleticism and big -play ability to be a lead cornerback if he matures.
• Anticipation skills and explosive, downhill burst could make him a star in zone-based scheme.

Weaknesses

• Has tense ankles and hips with choppy footwork when attempting to redirect and doesn't always look natural changing directions.
• Lowers his shoulder for the big hit rather than wrapping up securely.
