Size (6’4 261lbs) coaches dream of for today’s Edge Rushers. Good but not great first step. Uses his hands well to keep lineman off him. Finesse rusher with a good swim move, and tape shows he will bend the corner like a pro. Possesses a great motor, constantly worked his way back into the action even when he played himself out the play. At the moment Latu is a bit raw still. Plays way too high and allowed blockers to get underneath his pads. Limited at this time as a pash rusher, he still needs to other develop moves and counter moves. Athletically he’s capable to drop in coverage but was rarely asked to do so in college. Tape shows he plays out of control and will over run tackles/sacks. Latu at this time is a 2nd round talent but if he puts together all his tools and develops his pass rush we’re talking about possibly the next great edge rusher in the league.
