Strengths:
High-motor edge rusher. Versatility to put hand in dirt or play standing up. Good burst off the snap. Plus athlete with great bend off the edge. High football IQ and productive at Youngstown State. Aggressive hands and plays with good pad level. He might be a dark horse first round pick because of his ability to get the to quarterback.
Weaknesses:
Lacks tape against elite talent. Size and length isn't ideal. Needs work playing the run which could limit him early on. Struggles at times to shed blocks. Developing a bull rush is a must for him to evolve into a top pass rusher.
