Scouting Report
Potential
When he's finally able to put the whole package together, he should consistently pressure the quarterback. Has the combination of power and speed to someday be a reliable end against the run. By the time his college career is over, he will be known as a ferocious tackler. Won't ever have the type of aggressiveness to catch your eye, but it should be ok.
