Three-year starter and All-Conference selection as a senior. Led
the team in tackles last year, posting 96/7.5/3, with seven
interceptions. Junior totals were 56/5.5/1. Went through multiple knee
surgeries at Georgia.
Pos:
Strong sideline-to-sideline linebacker who is best defending the
run. Explodes up the field, is stout at the point of attack and wraps
up ball carriers. Effectively uses his hands to get off blocks, shows
a good head for the ball and works to get involved. Breaks down well
and makes a lot of athletic plays.
Neg:
Slow to shed blocks and gets caught up in the wash. Struggles in
coverage and is not as good as his stats would lend one to believe.
