Combine 40: 4.92 - Position Rank: 1 of 55
Positives: Very athletic... Good agility... Good burst of the ball... Does a good job anticipating the snap... Explosive... Disruptive... Gets in the backfield... Pressures the pocket...

Does a solid job stacking... Can fight off blocks to make plays on the ball... Holds the edge well... Pursues the ball... Does a good job playing in space... Stays low... Has overcome adversity in upbringing... Defensive MVP led Crimson Tide to their 13th national championship in 2009... Selected All-SEC second team for the 2010 season... Starting 3-4 RDE at Alabama... Schematic versatility... Ran a better 10-yard split and is 28 pounds bigger than Nick Fairley, has a slightly better grade and should be the first defensive tackle off the board... Compares to Richard Seymour and Bryant Young, should be used similarly to how the Green Bay Packers use B.J. Raji in their 3-4 base.
Negatives: Can give up on plays... Suspended first two games of this season for NCAA rules violation (attending agent's party)... Had just four games starting experience prior to the 2010 season... A little heavier than ideal for a five-technique, would be best off playing at 285 pounds.
