Strengths
- Understands zone concepts and is aware of his surroundings. Reliable tackler who reacts quickly when he sees it.
- Transitions well from coverage to close on the ball. Strong hands, quick reactions for the interceptions.
- Savvy using his hands to get to the ball without drawing flags. Willing tackler and high-effort leader.
- Good strength to tackle. Plays with high energy and is a tough-minded overachiever.
- Tough in run support and works hard to get off blocks. Hard-nosed player who attacks the run and doesn't back down.
Weaknesses
- Lowers his shoulder for the big hit rather than wrapping up securely.
- Lacks instincts with shaky awareness, is overaggressive and too often bites on fakes and misdirection.
- Has a high backpedal and loses a step in transition. Plays with adequate speed but there are concerns about his ability to handle the truly explosive speedsters of the NFL.
- Too hands-on downfield and has suspect instincts.
- Needs to improve his footwork and balance in coverage. Transitions out of his backpedal too early and doesn't look natural moving in reverse.
