Weaknesses
Sounds like Hardy Nickerson Jr v2
- Hip tightness creates sluggishness in transitional movements
- Mediocre instincts and lack of burst allow blockers to find him too easily
- Struggles to maneuver through box traffic efficiently
- Too much guess work and not enough feel for lane choices by running backs
- Poor speed to range, chase and finish
- Needs to compliment forceful take-ons with better block slipping
- Sitting duck waiting to be exploited by passing attacks
I am curious what weaknesses we would see from each 6th round pick in the 2019 draft.
If you look at these, you would think he was not good enough to play in college, let alone in the NFL.
But I read this guy as Rey M. 2.0, a run stopper who is physical and lousy in pass coverage. A 2 down LB with no shot at being a 3 down LB. Of course, our run defense was best when we had Rey M. on the field all of those years.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
