He's a similar player.  He probably has more range than Burfict, but isn't as good a pass rusher.  He's less of a head case, and falls more on the side of tough/hardnosed than dirty/cheap.  Like Burfict, he's not great in coverage.

Personally, he's rated higher than he should be.  He's a great run defender, but lack of coverage skills and/or pass rush ability translates to a two down thumper in the NFL.
