Drafted: 2021: ROUND: 4 - Pick Number: 123 (PHI)
Strengths
- Has good foot quickness and short-area burst to work well in tight areas.
- Has good awareness and quick feet. Fluid backpedal, aggressive attacking the receiver from the snap, and flashes spectacular ball skills.
- A tough, fearless athlete who plays with a physical and aggressive mentality on the football field.
- Physical run supporter in the Antoine Winfield mold with short-area explosiveness to leave his mark on ballcarriers.
- Very aggressive attacking receiver blocks and tackles like a safety.
Weaknesses
- Closing speed and willingness to make the big hit make him one of the more versatile safeties in the class.
- Will slip off tackles and needs to finish more consistently.
- Very raw from a technique and instincts standpoint. Overaggressive, taking too many chances for the big play.
- Has suspect instincts in coverage and needs to show better pre snap recognition.
- NFL quarterbacks may take advantage of his aggressiveness in man and zone to eye up short routes and go over the top

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
