He is significantly larger than most NT's but hit the prerequisites for explosiveness crushed all the timed drills by a fair amount according to Kent Platte (Math Bomb). I think people sometimes have a hard time contextualizing his performance because they look at DT as one position when it really isn't. He is a great athlete for the position at his size and I think he makes a ton of sense in the 2nd, I just have concerns at 18. Now If you told me we went back to the mid 20's and got another 3rd? Yea, I'd be game.

At 366 there aren't many guys to compare too so we have to look at guys like Vita Vea and Haloti Ngata. When compared to them Sweats testing was average which matches his tape. He is not an explosive guy which is fine for who he is... 


Fabien Lovett is another NT I like. He kinda dropped down boards after weighing in light during the Shrine Bowl but was back up closer to his playing weight for thr combine around 320.
