Josh Bynes, 2011 Undrafted Free Agent, Inside Linebacker


Bynes, Josh Auburn 6013 239 4.76
Three-year starter. Works through traffic to make a play.
Doesn’t stay blocked. Quick to shed. Takes good downfield angles
in pursuit. Makes all the defensive calls, checks, and adjustments.
Good football intelligence. Cut tackler at times. No wrap. Led the
Tigers in tackles in 2010. Plays well from tackle to tackle. Good
initial read and react. Quick first step. Somewhat tight in the hips,
average change of direction. On a straight line could get to the ball.
Good inside fills. Physical attacking blocks. Used his hands well and
separated. Struggled when the play was outside the box. Did not
play well in space. Needs work on pass drops. Inconsistent reactions
to the thrown ball and tended to get hung up in transition. Good
motor, active and hustled in pursuit. He looks like a two down
inside player.
