Strengths

• Quarterbacks and ballcarriers feel his strength when he plants them in the backfield.
• Big-bodied rusher with very good upper-body strength. Strong and stout at the point of attack with the measurables to occupy multiple blockers.
• Combines strength and footwork to fill holes inside, as well. Recovers from cut blocks or falling on his way to make a tackle.
• Plays with leverage at the point of attack whether inside or outside. Keeps eyes in the backfield when inside; moves linemen to either side with strong hands.
• Tall, solid frame with adequate length and has done a nice job losing the bad weight and firming his body.

Weaknesses

• Might be limited to one-gap systems. Agility isn't a question but misses tackles when he doesn't square and break down.
• Isn't able to consistently shed blocks and makes plays in the hole.
• Inconsistent in his ability to separate from blocks, however, making him more of a nuisance than a snap-to-snap terror.
• Must improve hand use and read-and-react skills. Lacks the violent hands to shed and can be eliminated by double-team blocks.
• Needs to play more disciplined and control his aggression. Doesn't play with a relentless motor and needs to give consistent effort on every play.
