Senior Bowl Preview: No Shortage Of Impact Defenders On This Roster
http://www.dallascowboys.com/news/2016/01/19/senior-bowl-preview-no-shortage-impact-defenders-roster
...Name: Reggie Ragland
Position: ILB
College: Alabama
Height: 6-2
Weight: 252
40 Time: 4.89
Report: You can see on tape that Ragland loves to play the game. He is always around the ball. Highly competitive player and leader. Plays with intelligence and is a hard guy to fool. Rare to see him out of position or trailing on a play. Very good short-area foot quickness. Plays with a closing burst, and he can really run. Once he sees the ball, he is going to make a play. There are plays where you see him running past teammates to get there. Plays off blocks with power and is physical. Attacks the gap. Can slide to ball. Interestingly, Ragland puts hand in the dirt in nickel defense and gives them something as a rusher. Quickness off the edge. Flat, drop player in coverage. Don’t ask him to do much in coverage. Point of attack player. Can run down ball carriers in the flat. Some snap when he hits. Has a nose for the ball. Can cause turnovers. Assignment sound. Plays square in the hole. This is a plug-and-play type of player. He plays much faster than his 40 time...
Name: Austin Johnson
Position: DT
College: Penn State
Height: 6-3
Weight: 325
40 Time: 5.25
Report: Lines up as a one-technique defensive tackle. Non-stop motor and effort. He has a physical toughness to take on multiple blockers and still remain productive. Excellent speed and quickness despite his mammoth size. Plays with a closing burst and acceleration. Lateral agility is rare. He can attack the gap and get up the field. Can get some push on double team. Will fight off blocks to hold the point. Shows upper and lower body to get rid of blockers. Plays down the line. Aware for the screen. Hard guy to fool. Can change direction once he makes the read. Will fight to avoid the reach block. Don’t see him get hooked. Makes plays from the back door. Has the quickness to get away with this. Stays active. Tremendous power. Can really hold the point of attack. Can get push in the middle. Will use moves to free himself. Hard man to block on the move. Disruptive. Can finish plays...
