Chiefs, Round 4. Declared early for the 2016 NFL Draft.
Postseason events: NFL Combine.
Positives: Above-average height and bulk for the position, with adequate hand size. Runs with above-average lateral quickness and good burst. Generally above-average hands and can extend well and snag fast passes. Okay downfield blocker. Knows when to get out of bounds stop the clock. Adequate vertical leap and lower-body explosiveness for the position. Adequate lateral quickness in pro day measurements. Good ability to change directions with burst for the position.
Negatives: Though he has pretty good size, he has long legs and looks like he has some trouble changing directions. Legs are a little bit out of sync with his body and he will slip trying to make a big cut. Inconsistent concentration. Consistently below-average tracking over his inside shoulder. Below-average decisions on punt returns and will run backwards and dance too much before heading upfield. Below-average track speed for the position. Suspended four times by team during his college career and was also benched during a couple of games.
Pre-Draft Projection: Round 4 based on what I’ve heard. I would give him a later-round grade.
