Scouting Report | Potential |
| He needs to learn better technique and he will be a solid pass rusher. I think he'll become a decent run defender but anything more would be a surprise. Most so called 'experts' think he will have about average speed for a D tackle. He'll be pretty strong, but compared to other D linemen, his strength will be about average. |
