Projection

4-7 Round Day 3

Ideal frame to play edge in college with chance to add mass and strength and perhaps play defensive line. Can easily get to 240 pounds and has plus length. Plays mostly with hand on ground for Flowers but has some standup reps. Flashes twitch at snap and is able to stay low. Athleticism shines when coming off edge. Combination of length Plays attacking style and can re-direct along line of scrimmage. Possesses body control and closing speed to tackle in space. Has speed to chase down play from behind. Plays with energy and effort and has physical approach. Willing to work through double teams. Good change of direction for frame size. Shows an ability to uses hands effectively to keep offensive linemen from engaging. Technique of swim move displayed but continued development of moves and move sets are needed. Adding lower body flexibility will allow for more bend and help in getting around edge and being more impactful in winning leverage. Has to show an ability to anchor and stack-and-shed at point of attack in run game. Continued strength development needed throughout frame, particularly in upper body. Multi-year starter at high-level program. Mid round NFL draft potential.
