______________________

• Just an infectious football player through and through. There's nothing he won't do for his football team. Plays until after the whistle. Plays just about every position on offense and loves it.


• Good all-around, natural athlete. Has a little wiggle in his game through and he should get some more quickness and burst through an NFL strength and nutrition program. Don't think he's hit his ceiling yet.


• Animal in the blocking game: there isn't any assignment he won't hit head on and he can block in different ways and from different positions.


• Natural pass catcher with soft hands. Gets up the field quickly and can make players miss.


• Should contribute immensely on special teams as well.

• Comes from an average spread style offense so there will be an on-ramp to a pro style.


• Not a great athlete for the position, which likely led to his draft position, but a fairly good one for the position. He better get lined up on linebackers because he's not going to run away from many NFL safeties at this point.


• Blocking is inconsistent. Sometimes it's excellent, other times he whiffs and ends up on the group. Most of his struggles comes from when his pads get over his toes. Just needs to block flat-footed a bit more. Can easily be coached up.


• Is being good at everything but a master of none good enough in the NFL?
