If you look at the <a class="bbc_url" href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPaL-w1r3aU&t=24m0s'>Senior Bowl</a> it has great examples of the good and the bad with him.

If you start watching at 20:30 he has 4 straight tackles

20:30 Solid

21:14 Not Solid

21:56 Ankle

22:40 The Ole Wrap and Drag

Then at 24:00 he got beat to the corner by <a class="bbc_url" href='http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/deandre-washington?id=2555464'>Deandre Washington</a>.


He was NOT blowing people up on these plays but he made the stops. Four straight tackles playing against quality players where he wasn't able to study the tendencies of his opponents confirms to me that he understands the game and has good instincts.


He and <a class="bbc_url" href='http://www.nfl.com/draft/2016/profiles/scooby-wright%20iii?id=2555292'>Scooby Wright III </a>are almost the same player.


Having either of those two players would be good but do we need more speed than these guys offer at the LB position?
