Strengths
- Good hustle player who puts himself in the action when he's not directly involved. Knows how to use his height and vertical leap.
- Has smooth body control with the fluid ability to plant and redirect in any direction. Plays fast and decisive, arriving to the play with fierce intentions.
- Good strength to tackle. Plays with high energy and is a tough-minded overachiever.
- Quicker than he is fast but has a burst to close in zone coverage and plays physical at the line in man.
- Reads and deciphers quickly, reacting in a flash with a nose for the ball. Jumps routes and drives fast on plays in front of him.
Weaknesses
- Inconsistent getting off of blocks. Can be a step slow to react when a quarterback comes back to his side of the field late in progression.
- Has an NFL frame with strong hands, the ability to close quickly on underneath routes and the size to tackle with a thump.
- Will slip off tackles and needs to finish more consistently.
- Not an explosive player and needs to show better bend and flexibility in his drops - plays too high.
- He is very disruptive at all levels of the field, and his versatile experience will be enticing, but a lot of teams will see more tweener traits than versatile ability.
