Analysis from NFL.com
STRENGTHS
Confident and tough with high football character. Gives second effort and doesn’t quit on plays. Arm over can make tackles look foolish in pass rush. Productive and active against the run.
WEAKNESSES
Rigid mover lacking thickness in lower body. Doesn’t consistently utilize power in his hands. Plays too upright. Doesn’t dip and turn corner as tightly as you would like for a 3-4 edge rusher.

SOURCES TELL US
“He’ll get pegged as a 3-4 rush ‘backer, but a 4-3 team could look at him as a situational pass rusher if he is there late second day.” — AFC area scout “He overcame a tough childhood and developed a mindset that nothing is going to stop him. He works his butt off and he wants to be great. I’m cheering hard for this kid and I’ll bang the table for him when the time is right.” — NFC North scout
