Keeps his head up and locates the ball... Good tackler... Looks comfortable in his drops... Good awareness... Good motor... Hard worker... Gives a good effort... Mean streak... Good character... Fits as a 3-4 five-technique in a one-gap system... Selected All-Big Ten second team for the 2010 season.

Can be controlled if opponent gets his hands on him first... Tends to run around blocks, struggles to face them head on... Very straight-line type of athlete... Shorter than ideal arms...
