Strengths
- Explosive size-speed athlete with brisk short-area quickness and foot speed.
- Sports a dense and compact frame and has enough length to play past his frame.
- Profile yields in-built versatility on motions, in-line, designed touches, and as a big slot.
- Flashes high-end lateral burst and fluidity on screens and when shifting into the flats.
- Has the burst and long speed to threaten the seam and stretch the field on RAC plays.
- Possesses the necessary curvilinear flexibility to bend while accelerating up the seam.
- Flashes high-end focus, hand-eye coordination, and extension timing on high passes.
- Can contort and control his body to make high-difficulty catches even against contact.
- Has vice-grip hands in contested situations and can secure passes away from his frame.
- Has shown he can chop his feet and quickly plant and drive on digs over the middle.
- Flashes promise as an independent separator, using stem presses and leverage IQ.
- Can use targeted extensions to pry past press defenders while exploding up the seam.
- Has shown he can use his midsection to absorb solo hits and keep his legs churning.
- Consistently finishes forward with his combination of physicality and contact balance.
- Incredibly willing run blocker with alignment and usage versatility and great power load.
- Burst and long speed, while exceptional, fall just short of the elite mark.
- Doesn’t quite have the speed necessary to separate on long-tracking crossers.
- Isn’t an overwhelming size threat and doesn’t have high-end mass or reach.
- Sub-250-pound frame may limit his utility as an in-line blocker in the NFL.
- Sometimes exhibits slight hip stiffness when working across-face against DBs.
- At times, runs too far upright ahead of stems, inhibiting sink and misdirection.
- Doesn’t have high-end sink at stems and will let DBs get inside his frame with tall style.
- Can still strive for more efficient plant-and-drive footwork and tempo at stems.
- Focus and hand-eye coordination can be disrupted by direct contact and physicality.
- Occasionally overshoots run blocking angles in space and lacks elite recovery flexibility.
- At times, can be more disciplined with his angles and extension timing.
