Summary He is a very physically gifted athlete that has excelled as a pass rusher from the OLB spot on the college level, and really flashed in the post season all-star games. He combines excellent up field speed and quickness, and is very difficult to block rushing off the corner. He is almost a one-dimensional player, and has very little experience and pass drops and coverage, and is only adequate vs. the run, and doesn’t play with a lot of leverage or strength at the POA. This is an open space, run and chase type guy that needs to be free to fly to the ball...He probably fits best on the NFL level as a 34 rush LB, but there is some baggage with this guy. He has had some off the field problems, and if those aren’t solved, it could hinder him on draft day, although he is an excellent 2nd or 3rd Round type prospect.
