Strengths: pass protection, good variety, impulses
Weak points: taking on, does not have explosiveness/twitch, shed blocks, pass rush
Summary: 5th-year senior. Begins at pound. Moved from Youngstown State. Long-limbed pound with size and frame to hold more weight. Below-average run protector, above-average in pass protection, below-average as a pass rush. As a run protector he is below-average. Circulations to the ball well, has great impulses, can handle blocks, flashes some good variety however isn't specifically explosive and overpursues.
Huge issue is he's a bad tackler; misses out on method a lot of simple deals with, whiffs in area, has a hard time to flex and shed, press and disengage off blocks. More of a drag-down guy when he's able to reach point of contact, not a thumper who can remove the ball. Discovers his own when coming out of a backpedal. In pass protection, he is above-average. Has capability to cover and bring receivers. Can remain handsy without getting flagged. As a pass rush he is below-average. Does not have volatility and has a hard time to reach the Q in time.
