Strengths

• Has smooth lateral movement skills with good foot quickness. First off the snap and sets quickly. Aggressive and extends his arms into contact, delivering a sharp punch.
• Awareness is above-average for his limited experience. Sells trap block and can turn to seal. Fluid getting to and adjust at the second level.
• Finishes and doesn't quit; competitor with a positive attitude and leadership traits that coaches admire.
• Has average height with a narrow base out of his stance. Needs to get stronger in his lower half to anchor at the point of attack.
• Solid positional run blocker who flashes the nasty demeanor and killer instinct scouts covet.

Weaknesses

• A short-area blocker with limited range and doesn't consistently get to the second level. Will play undisciplined at times, especially in space. Lacks a finishing attitude.
• Not a natural knee-bender and gets too upright. Needs to play with better leverage and stay balanced through contact.
• Will punch at smaller defenders instead of latching on and is more of a mauler than mover in the running game. Can improve maintaining outside leverage when doubling the nose. Ducks his head and gets too upright, causing him to fall off second-level blocks.
• Anticipates speed rushers attacking the edge and will over-set to the outside, leaving inside rushing lanes wide open for defenders to jab-step outside and re-direct through the gap.
• Drops his head too often on contact, which causes problems against swim moves.
