Yeah, he played with a great front, but he was also overlooked because of them. As an inside run-stuffer though, he's legitimate. Like a Venezuelan cab driver in traffic, he can go inside-out, sideline-to-sideline, and is rarely put on the ground. When he finds his target he flies down the alley, and is a true stopper when tackling.

All great stuff, but with the usual caveats in coverage. He overplays his position, setting up well initially but selling out on the first move (pivot routes are like 20 yard gains against him). Still, he's smart about his limitations and does enough to hang in there. As far as the intangibles go, he shows intensity and reportedly has leadership qualities.

Probably not an every-down backer, but he'll outplay his draft slot. Middle rounds.
