Derek Wolfe scouting report

Derek Wolfe DT Cincinnati #95
Ht: 6’5″Wt: 295  
Strengths:
Adequate size and strength. Does a nice job staying low to hold his ground at the point of attack against the run. Does a nice job as a bull rusher considering his average size; strong legs allow him to continue to push his was into the backfield even when the offensive lineman gets into good position. Primarily lined up at three-technique tackle in 4-3 sets, but does have some experience at end in 3-4 sets.
Weaknesses:
Spends a ton of time on the ground; dives at the ball carrier too often, taking himself out of the play completely rather than attempting to make a play in pursuit. Lacks the speed (and possibly the stamina?) to make any plays in pursuit; rarely takes off down the field after the ball carrier. Gives a strong pass-rush effort on initial burst, but seems to lose steam quicker than most other interior pass rushers. Appears to wear down throughout the course of the game.
Comments:
Wolfe is a sort of a tackle/end ‘tweener. 4-3 teams will view him as a three-technique tackle, but he lacks the athleticism and ability to consistently pressure the quarterback that most teams prefer at that position these days. As a result, he may be better suited as a 3-4 end, where he’ll be able to hold his ground against the run and won’t be expected to pressure the quarterback as often.
