Scouting Report: Strengths
- Bothroyd is strong enough in the lower body to hold up at the point of attack, and Bothroyd displays a good feel as a grappler in the phone booth, consistently getting blockers off-balance before sending them to the ground.
- He shows good quickness off the line of scrimmage and flashes the violent hands to win around the edge.
- Naturally explosive player with decent get-off speed. Balanced through contact and stout against double-teams. Tackles through the ball. Versatile and has the body type to play many roles.
- His handwork is excellent. Bothroyd is tough against the run, playing with a firm base when setting the edge and showing the upper-body strength to stack and shed blockers.
- Adequate change-of-direction agility and straight-line speed to contain.
- Possesses accurate snap anticipation and timing to beat blockers off the edge.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- With neither elite strength nor elite speed, Bothroyd lacks one standout trait.
- Bothroyd doesn’t show much in the way of dynamic change-of-direction ability on counter moves, and he also has a limited repertoire of pass-rushing moves.
- Bothroyd doesn't have the elite quickness or flexibility to flatten off the edge against NFL blockers and might have to add bulk to be a 3-4 defense five-technique, or strong-side end in a 4-3.
