I mean, some will point to pressures, but why can't he finish? With his ability there's no good reason why he can't. That run stop rate points to a complete lack of effort. Kid doesn't have the "want to" to finish plays, either putting in that extra effort on the field or in practice so he CAN finish. He doesn't care enough about that. It doesn't mean enough to him.
He just feels like the type of guy that doesn't love the game and sees it as a means to an end. He cruises on his athletic ability, knows he'll be a first round pick because some teams will sell themselves on the idea that they can "fix" or "motivate" him, and he'll be out of the league in a few years having "earned" more than enough money to retire comfortably.
This is exactly the type of player you stay away from, ala Jackson Carman. Tons of talent, but not the want to be great, nor the love of the game.
