Scouting Report: Strengths
- Big-bodied rusher with very good upper-body strength. Strong and stout at the point of attack with the measurables to occupy multiple blockers.
- Martin has the strong core and powerful hands to shed blockers, and Martin shows excellent instincts with the ability to quickly locate the ball.
- He’s very instinctive when it comes to countering and solid with overall hand usage.
- He has the heavy hands and upper-body strength to win with power. Martin drops his weight and anchors well against the run, holding up at the point of attack and capable of occupying double teams.
- Arguably his best skill due to an extraordinary burst off the snap. Explodes out of his stance, demonstrating a burst upfield to slip gaps and the lateral agility once past the line to chase down the quarterback.
- His hand use is excellent; he’s strong in the upper body and consistently swats away blockers.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- He’ll typically go to a bull rush but lacks the suddenness to generate a push. Martin doesn’t show anything in the way of counters once he’s stopped in his initial rush.
- Isn't able to consistently shed blocks and makes plays in the hole.
- Needs to keep his pad level low; pops upright and plays too tall, struggling to maintain leverage off the snap.
