Otto Greule Jr./Allsport
|
|
|
He may be a little bit of a "sleeper" in this draft. He is an excellent looking physical specimen with great intangibles, work ethic and tremendous leadership skills. He is not a great natural runner, but he shows tremendous effort and will attack the hole, but he is not real nifty in the open field. He is a willing blocker, but only adequate in that area. His best attribute may be his ability to catch the ball out of the backfield. He has very natural hands and receiving skills and is tough to bring down when he gets into the open field. He is a versatile guy and should be able to match up well on linebackers in the passing game and his character will make him a favorite among NFL coaches.
