Re: UFA Wishlist

Tyler King - Athletic defensive lineman with good upside for the next level. Gets leverage on opponents, quick off the snap and displays lower-body strength. Moves well laterally, plays with balance and rarely off his feet. Tough, yet at the same time an intelligent defender who reads the action. Not strong and ridden from his angle of attack by tight ends. Lacks explosion and suddenness.

Lorenzo Alexander - Hard-working interior plugger with marginal size and growth potential. Gets off the snap with a great first step, keeps his pads low to the ground and drives up the field. Displays speed moving laterally with the ability to pursue from the backside. Quick with his hands, fights to get off blocks and wraps up tackling. Doubled by opponents in the middle of the line. Tough, yet intelligent and immediately locates the ball. Lacks bulk on the inside and easily handled at the point by a single blocker. Marginally productive on the college level.

Jim Davis - Athletic defensive lineman effective stopping the run or rushing the passer. Explodes off the snap with a quick first step, plays low with leverage and holds his ground against double teams. Fast off the edge when placed at end and fluid making plays up and down the line of scrimmage. Displays footwork moving laterally, immediately alters his angle of attack or redirects to ballcarriers. Gets pushed up the field and exploits immobile blockers. Undersized for tackle and engulfed at the point. Struggles getting off blocks if he does not beat opponents with the first move.

Adrian Awasom - Athletic prospect who plays bigger than his listed size. Keeps his pads low to the ground, gets leverage on opponents and immediately alters his angle of attack. Stays with the action, strings plays laterally and tough to knock off his feet. Doubled by opponents yet holds his ground against blocks. Works his hands nicely, chases around the field to get involved in the action and wraps up opposing ball handlers. Plays with a nasty attitude and gets a good amount of momentum going up the field. Not quick or explosive off the snap and lacks speed to the flanks. Lacks bulk and slow getting off blocks. Not as productive as scouts would have hoped and labeled as a bit of an underachiever.

George Gause - Athletic line prospect who consistently shows flashes of brilliance. Solid edge rusher with a quick change of direction and ability to alter his angle of attack. Pursues well laterally, displays excellent range, and makes plays in any direction of the field. Fast up the field, rarely off his feet and focused on by opponents. Slow diagnosing the play or locating the ball. Lacks an explosive first step off the snap and overall suddenness to his game. Handled at the point once engaged in a block.
