Strengths
Quick to read run, showing good agility and speed to get past blockers and finish. Experienced in coverage and gets a strong jam on outside receivers.
Intelligent player who can play "MIKE" linebacker despite his lack of size because of his instincts and ability to find the ball in traffic.
Can attack the edge with speed and has the flexibility to dip low and under the tackle's reach.
Work in progress as a pass rusher, with upfield burst and flexibility to dip and scrape.
Looks the part. Good height and a thick, muscular build. Long arms. Good overall athleticism and straight-line speed.
Weaknesses
Lacks functional strength to shed and take on blocks at the point of attack.
Can be too hesitant when he doesn't find the ball immediately.
His lateral agility and burst often put him in position to make big plays, but he takes questionable routes to the ball and struggles to avoid blockers when in pursuit.
Saught looking into the backfield occasionally instead of getting to the receiver in the flat. Leaves his feet at times while tackling, and NFL backs will take advantage of that.
Lacks the strength to blow up fullbacks and bulk/length to prevent getting engulfed by better linemen at the second level.
