Scouting Report | Potential |
| His run defense alone will never be great but hopefully he can reach an acceptable level in this area. He'll end up having the kind of agility that is fairly typical for a college linebacker. His overall strength will rate in the upper half of the linebacker scale by the time he's finished. With better technique, his ability to cover passes will become a huge asset for any team. |
