H.S. Scouting Report
Evaluated 09/20/2019
Projection
Group of 5 StarterBurly interior defensive lineman with requisite size. Stockier, stout build. Frame-limited but doesn't need to add too much weight to get to ideal playing size in college. Bull at the point of attack who can stalemate blockers and occupy gaps. Strong lower-body drive allows for steering of offensive linemen into running lanes. Shows encouraging pursuit ability relative to size. Must improve get-off quickness and consistency. Plays too high at times and can improve body control and balance. Will need to expand pass rush repertoire. Above average straight-line athlete who needs to improve lateral mobility and body control. FBS-caliber defensive tackle prospect who could become multi-year Group of 5 starter with possible Power 5 ceiling.
