Equipped as a penetrating three-technique, right now he's best at defending the run. He's not a two-gap wall, but makes plays with surprising pursuit ability -- he moves off blocks quickly, and doesn't give up until he finds the ball-carrier (where he's good for a backside forced fumble every other game). Missouri got a little carried away with his athleticism (standing him up as a linebacker...no), but he can really, really run.

While his first step is very good, he's still learning how to rush the passer consistently. If he doesn't win off the snap, he can start leaning into linemen and forget to use his long arms. So I wouldn't expect him to get a half dozen sacks right away. He can still affect the passing game with his quickness, he just needs to refine his approach.

Lots of potential if he learns to anchor better and become more threatening with pressure. Possibly the best pure 4-3 under tackle in this class (not counting Lotulelei, who can play anywhere), and should be gone in the mid to late first round.
