Versatile – lines up DT and DE on both sides of ball
Weaknesses:
Lacks a first step; doesn’t fire out of stance
Not the elite athlete he is hyped up as
Extremely inconsistent
Lacks serious power at point of attack
Very soft and not physical
Dominated by inferior talent
Not mentally tough
Not as productive as stats would lead you to believe
No pass-rush move outside of spin
Lacks counter moves
Doesn’t seem to love the game
Poor intangibles
Lethargic body language on the field
Summary: At times I will see Dunlap make a nice hustle play, but these moments are few and far between. He’ll make a tackle for a loss when he wasn’t even blocked, but this doesn’t show up statistically. Dunlap is an extremely overrated prospect with very poor intangibles. He could get drafted anywhere from the top 10 (Jamaal Anderson/Derrick Harvey) to the second round (Calais Campbell).
Player Comparison: Jamaal Anderson. Anderson has had a mediocre work ethic and played very sloppy, lazy football for Atlanta. I anticipate the same for Dunlap in the NFL.
