Big-bodied defensive lineman with edge athleticism and interior physical upside. Plays extensive two-way snaps at tight end and primarily a 5-tech D-line spot. Not simply a blocking piece on offense; shows big-play ability downfield and in run-after-catch opportunities. Displays promising sudden athleticism at the snap with corresponding pursuit juice. Fluid and flexible relative to size/projected role, especially through the hips, knees, ankles. Flashes encouraging redirecting ability with some chase-down athleticism when needed. Above average balance and body control accompany linear explosiveness when rushing the passer. Plenty of long-term potential as a rusher, but ideally would see more production in that category. Heavy-handed at the point of attack and capable of playing through size in the run game. Good football pedigree and a multi-sport athlete who plays baseball. Combine testing data reflects functional athleticism shown in pads. Must stay aware of naturally high center of gravity to maximize leverage/pad level. Bona fide high-major defensive prospect who could become an impact player for multiple college seasons. Owns physical traits and functional athleticism that suggest a very high developmental ceiling that could lead to serious NFL Draft consideration.
