Pros: Outstanding football IQ. Versatility to play all 3 linebacker positions. Sound fundamentals and excellent tackler. Can shed blocks effectively and gets from sideline to sideline in pursuit better than most at his position. Plays both the pass and run with equal effectiveness. Neutralizes tight-ends and fullbacks coming out on pass routes. Recorded multiple interceptions every year as a starter including returning some for touchdowns. Top notch field general who is very rarely out of position and consistently makes plays at a high skill level.
Cons: Anything listed here is a reach. Doesn't possess burner speed or freakish upper-body strength but on the field he is solid.
Overall: Best linebacker prospect in the draft and top 10 selection. Not as well known as his USC and Ohio State counterparts but no one is as well rounded or as safe a draft selection.
