Christian Anthony - Grambling (HT: 6-3½ - WT: 281)
Combine 40: N/A - Pro Day 40: N/A - Position Rank: 35 of 55
Positives: Athletic... Solid pass rusher... Good first step... Good power... Does a solid job shedding blockers... Good closing speed... Plays the run reasonably well... Pursues the ball well... Good range... Moves well in space... Relentless... Good but inconsistent motor... Plays violent and with good intensity... Leader... Can make some big plays for a defense... Has played reasonably well in games versus higher competition, had a team high 12 tackles (11 solo) versus Oklahoma State in 2009... SWAC Defensive Player of the Year with 76 tackles, 15 TFL, eight sacks, five picks (two for touchdowns) and five forced fumbles in 2009... Was back on the field for the NFLPA Game.
Negatives: Can be pushed back by bigger linemen... Shorter than ideal arms... Does not have much of an arsenal... Tends to run around blocks, struggles to face them head on... Seems to tire late in the game... Can take plays off... A bit undisciplined, tends to gamble a lot and can give up some big plays to his side... Needs to improve maintaining containment... Had some upside as a 3-4 OLB as well, but added considerable bulk and is best fit as a 4-3 DE... Medical concerns, missed the entire season after suffering an apparent heart attack in August, 2010, was a fourth round prospect prior to heart attack... Lack of competition playing at the FCS level... Will have to shake off the rust but could be a practice squad candidate in his rookie season.
