| Was considered by many the top JUCO prospect in the country. Is a good athlete who can run and covers a lot of ground, but overall I was disappointed in his lack of instincts and play strength. Didn't meet pressure tough, get off blocks and wasn't an explosive tackler. Does have teams potential, but I expected more in his overall game. A run around guy who makes plays, but has overall game needs a lot of refinement. Consider rounds 6-7
