Ayers, Akeem UCLA 6024 254 4.80
Junior entry. Two-year starter and team captain who plays best
on the line of scrimmage as an edge rusher. Can play up in a two
point stance or down in a three point stance. Can turn the
corner. Average upper and lower body flexibility. Needs to
upgrade his hand use to lock out and separate from big tackles
and tight ends. Needs more upper body strength. Questionable
instincts to read and digest quickly. Possesses the size that teams
are looking for in an outside linebacker. Looks more athletic
and faster on tape than his times. Lacks strength to seal the off
tackle gap in the run game. Can stick his foot in the ground and
break up quickly on check downs and ball carriers in front of
him. Flashes good ability to wrap up tackle. Has the speed and
athletic ability to carry a tight end down the field. Ayers has a
chance to be an eventual starter with developmental time.
