He is a player that appeared to be a high 1st round pick going into the season and many compared him to ex-Seminole DE Andre Wadsworth, but his stock appears to be falling and there are real concerns about his potential. He certainly passes the eye test and has all the measurables that a NFL team will want in a 1st round player, but he is not nearly as instinctive or productive as Wadsworth or even previously another Seminole, Peter Bolware. He tends to be blocked too easily and doesn't always seem to see things coming and struggles to locate the ball. He is almost a straight line chase guy at times and doesn't show great adjust on the move. He is adequate at best versus the run and isn't great when teams run right at him. He is a guy that is great at a workout and intrigues a lot of NFL teams, but something seems to be missing. He will still be drafted high, but he is a little more of a risk than many people realize.
