| Generally regarded as the top defensive tackle available, Paea possesses great athleticism and the strength to bull-rush offensive lineman, but there are also concerns about his arm length and whether that will affect his ability to utilize a rip move to get into the backfield. He may need to also add some size to his frame, but no one will question his work ethic, and he rarely fatigues late in games. The two-time Morris Trophy winner doesn’t figure to drop very deep into the first round after a stellar three-year run with Oregon State after he joined the team as a junior college transfer. |
