He is a talented guy that started his career at DS and moved to DC as a junior, but probably be switched back to DS on the NFL level. He is a big physical player with excellent speed and AA and as a safety, his cover skills are solid. He is built like a safety, but needs some technique work in his peddles and turns, as he is not a real fluid guy in change of direction and overall footwork. He tends to use a shuffle technique rather than a backpedal, which Clemson has used for years and he will need some refinement. He took a little bit of a dip on draft charts because of a senior year that was hindered some nagging injuries and he never really seemed to be 100% healthy and play to his abilities. He has a nice upside and as a DS, he will be excellent in cover situations and he should be able to matchup positively on inside WRs. He is a solid football player that has been a four year starter at a high level of competition and he should contribute immediately as a rookie and contribute.
