I don't really like him. He's an impressively large human, with some quickness about him as well -- he passes the eye test for a two-gap nose tackle. Unfortunately, he doesn't really play like one. His pads are either too high or he's picking himself off the ground. Doesn't use his hands to disengage. Not even reliable as non-moving obstacle, as he tries to win his individual match-up regardless of his responsibilities.
He has a three-tech mindset trapped in a nose tackle's body. And it's questionable how effective he'd be even if that changed, since he gets moved off the point *a lot* for a man of his size. I wouldn't be happy if my team took him in the first round.
