Drafted: Pick 37 of the 4th round by Baltimore
Analysis
Positives: Strong inside runner with big thighs and good upper body definition...Shows sharp in-line lateral agility and goo body mechanics running through the holes...Has a good feel for the creases and displays an explosive leg strike to uncoil and explode on contact...Makes proper body adjustments running pass routes and is very adept at getting involved in complex patterns, especially on swing and stop routes...Will extend, adjust and catch the ball securely with his hands...Aligns and positions himself properly leading the blocking through the rush lanes...Stays low in his stance, extends his arms and delivers a strong hand punch in picking up the blitz...
