Analysis
Positives: Has good lateral agility and explosion off the snap...Shows body control and strength with the ability to stack at the point of attack and split double teams...Has the vision to recognize the plays developing...Uses his hands well to shed and has the lateral quickness to flatten to the quarterback...Solid hit-&-wrap tackler with effective swim, spin and rips moves to get a good push upfield on the pass rush...Plays well working in-line, playing with leverage...Has the ability to get into the backfield and disrupt plays.
Negatives: Flashes good quickness in the short area, but lacks top-end speed...Needs reps to learn the plays, but is coachable...His only problem with the coaches was they had to stay on him to rehabilitate, as he's had a series of nagging minor injuries throughout his career...While he is a good wrapup tackler, he tends to lunge and dive to make the plays working in space...Needs to be pushed to work in the weight room, but has increased his bench press 20 pounds in the last six months...At times, he will get locked on to the blocker and struggle to disengage.
Career Notes
Powerful athlete who was a mainstay on the defensive line the last two years at nose guard...The partial qualifier received an additional year of eligibility in 2002 after graduating the previous spring...Finished with 88 tackles (41 solos), six sacks for minus 32 yards and 19 stops for losses of 65 yards while starting 14 of 35 games.
2002 Season
All-Mountain West Conference second-team selection...Started every game at nose guard, making 23 tackles (11 solos) with a sack and four stops for losses of 13 yards...Deflected three passes.
