Scouting Report: Strengths
- Aggressive with good awareness to track the ball and attack. Tenacious, tough, competItIve and versatile.
- He’s flexible enough to bend the edge, and he’s at his best when Batty can use his quickness and change-of-direction abilities to counter back inside.
- He’s a high-motor player, and he shows good enough hand use, as well as a tight spin move, to win as an edge rusher.
- Has fluid footwork to redirect, reverse momentum and close with a burst. Regularly first off the ball with good snap anticipation.
- Faces double-team and holds the line. Stays alive against the run and mobile quarterbacks, shedding to either side to chase.
- He’s quick to react and locate the ball, and he shows enough speed to succeed in backside pursuit. Batty plays with excellent balance and a strong, flexible core, rarely ending up on the ground.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Plays high and with poor balance and power. He’ll lose ground at the point of attack, and Batty doesn’t get the full benefit of his length.
- While he has violent hands, he uses them too inconsistently. Batty tends to let blockers get into his chest, and he’ll waste time hand fighting due to a limited array of pass rush moves.
- Not explosive as a pass rusher or run defender. Lacks elite speed and flexibility to turn the corner and is late off the snap.
