Strengths

• Anchors well and plays with the low center of gravity and natural bend to seal the inside lanes. Has violent hands with hustle to close off bubble screens and lead to flatten linebackers. Nasty demeanor and highly coachable.
• Has the feet to adjust when he anticipates what's coming. Effective trapping and bends at the knees with adequate core strength to absorb the bull rush. Can clear a path at the second level if he hits the target.
• Plays with appropriate wide base and intelligence, instincts and agility to seal the edge. Aggressive extending with power to punch and looks comfortable in space.
• Above-average football smarts and general intelligence. Plays with a nasty streak. Solid character and work ethic.
• Solid positional run blocker who flashes the nasty demeanor and killer instinct scouts covet.

Weaknesses

• Loses leverage battles and plays with high pad level. Can be late off the snap.
• Has only average measurable with limited arm length and no overpowering qualities.
• Susceptible to speed rushers. Has only average quickness off the snap and doesn't possess the acceleration or arm length to corral defenders once they cross his face.
• Needs to work on his technique in pass protection, using more consistent leverage and continuing to move his feet.
• Finesse blocker with average arm length who doesn't use his hands well to win at the point of attack.
