Navarro Bowman kind of linebacker. A lead dog, an alpha, whatever you want to call it, he's that guy. His athletic profile is unreal (it also helps him cover up his mistakes quickly) and compliments his vicious tackling. When he hits someone they know it -- he drops bodies but with perfect wrap technique. Coverage? He can do that too, and uses those old running back skills to track throws in the air.

He could get a little faster between the earholes as far as processing, but it hasn't stopped him from being a damn monster to this point. I like him better than any linebacker that was drafted in 2018.

+ Insane burst and balance; he stops-starts with no loss of speed or power
+ Gets in the scrum and uses his thick base and explosive stride to run through blockers
+ Has range all over the field and can play three downs

- Takes false steps due to aggression and can be manipulated in the underneath passing game
