Scouting Report: Strengths
- He’s at his best attacking downhill, showing good instincts and great take-on skills.
- Umanmielen shows good speed and closing burst when blitzing.
- He combines the athleticism of a chase-and-tackle defender and the toughness and physicality of a classic 4-3 Mike.
- Flashes strength to punch or stiff-arm to get off blocks. Stays with plays downfield, often making tackles even after being hit by multiple linemen.
- Does a nice job locating the ball and sticking with the play while working off blocks. Physical finisher.
- Umanmielen has the kind of turn-and-run fluidity to be used in man coverage as well, able to run with tight ends and running backs.
- Some teams will prefer him as a 4-3 Will, but Umanmielen has a chance to hold up in the middle and be a good one.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Umanmielen also has a tendency to be too aggressive attacking downhill, and Umanmielen can be beat on counter plays and cutbacks.
- He doesn’t play with the functional strength and physicality to fight through blocks; he’ll need to be covered up in order to maximize his playmaking.
- He lacks the speed of a chase and- tackle guy. Umanmielen lacks twitch as a pass rusher and lacks the feet and flexibility to threaten around the edge.
