Official Bio

Strengths:
Flies around the field and makes plays sideline-to-sideline...Very instinctive and always manages to be around the action...Excellent athlete with very good speed...Does a solid job when dropping into coverage...Explosive and a sure tackler...Versatile and can play multiple positions...Still has some upside since he has missed a lot of action...Could be had at a bargain point in the draft.

Weaknesses:
Has some major durability issues and has essentially missed three full seasons due to two knee injuries and an ankle surgery...Is vastly undersized for the position...Will have trouble taking on and shedding blockers...Is very confident to the point that it is bordering on cocky...Will be a risky pick and has a very high bust factor...Will need to be cleared by each teams medical personnel.

Notes:
Could project to either inside or weakside linebacker at the pro level...When healthy no one disputes his talent and ability, but to this point that is a 50/50 proposition with him...If he can stay on the field some team may have a steal, but he is very much a boom or bust type of prospect...Let the buyer beware.
