Middle Tennessee Browns Backers

Scouting Report

The good: Athletic senior linebacker has been a very productive and versatile defender. He has the athleticism that NFL scouts want in a premier pro linebacker. He runs well and make tackles sideline to sideline. In run support, he combines both quickness and power to grade out high. He has the ability to shed and slip blockers. Over his final season, he displayed improvement in his ability to drop in coverage and make plays on the ball. When he plays with high intensity, he can make plays late on the down that others never finish. He has improved his instincts late in his career.
The bad: He is still raw in pass coverage, and that probably limits him to a two-down player. He shows only marginal awareness in coverage and his change of direction skills are only adequate. His recognition skills to match up with running backs and tight ends is suspect and not ready for any type of nickel backer role with coverage duties. Over his career, he has struggled with durability. He missed time with an ankle injury as a junior. He did not fully participate in the NFL Combine due to a bruised knee.
