Las Vegas Raiders Drafted: 2021: ROUND: 5 - Pick Number: 167 (LV)
Strengths
  • Good agility and balance when shadowing his target. Competitive player.
  • Good strength to tackle. Plays with high energy and is a tough-minded overachiever.
  • Stout and feisty. Will engage, shed and securely wrap the ballcarrier. Very fluid hips, backpedal and change-of-direction agility.
  • Has at least adequate straight-line speed and good balance, fluidity to change direction.
  • Savvy cover skills to recognize and anticipate routes. Understands what's coming and has good ball skills.
  • Has good foot quickness and short-area burst to work well in tight areas.
  • Can deliver the big hit and isn't afraid to jump inside to slow the ball.
Weaknesses
  • Willing but not threatening tackler. Doesn't have the quick-twitch reaction when he gears down to rebuild to top speed. More instinctive than explosive.
  • Vulnerable to big plays trying to bait the quarterback.
  • Undisciplined, with inconsistent tackling technique, and does a poor job finishing in space. Suspect ball skills and can be eliminated from the play by a single blocker.

*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.
