Strengths
- Eases out of his stance and has a finisher's mentality. Bends his knees, has above-average mobility and keeps his base square to adjust to counters.
- Lone concern is handling the superquick NFL edge rusher. Foot speed and quickness are very good, but not elite.
- Effective in space and usually drops his hips to get leverage and sustain against shorter defenders.
- Willing to attack and punches multiple times to finish the play. Quick to pick up edge blitz and shows no panic, easily adjusting angles and resetting his feet. Can recover and reset his anchor. Rarely late off the snap.
- Quick-footed with smooth movement skills to cover a large area. Rangy with above average lateral ability. Bursts off the snap and sets up quickly with little wasted motion.
Weaknesses
- Stops his feet after initial contact, relying on length but allowing defender to get the corner or spin inside.
- Oversteps on his kick-side, allowing too wide of a lane back inside for pass rushers able to re-direct quickly. Has more power than quickness, struggles to re-direct and hit the moving target. Lunges too often, leading to flailing missed blocks.
- Can be beat off the edge coming out of his stance lunging to reach speedy wide rushers.
- Loses leverage battles and plays with high pad level. Can be late off the snap.
- Height can be a detriment in short-yardage, defender can get under his pads to hold the line.
