Walter of WalterFootball has been WalterFootball'ing since 1999'. Older Content is being kept around here. Thanks for reading.
Strengths: Nice length with room to develop Lots of experience in various roles Very athletic Nice closing speed Love his flexibility Great sideline-to-sideline range Fluid lateral movements Technically sound in coverage Solid instincts Versatile: Can play 4-3 SAM and 3-4 rush LB Has some upside
Weaknesses: Serious problems shedding blocks Inconsistent Soft Weak at point of attack Only rush moves are speed and bull Liability against the run Stonewalled against talented linemen Needs some development Doesn't live up to measureables Questionable character
Summary: Kindle is strictly either an outside linebacker (4-3 and 3-4 schemes) or a third pass rusher at the next level. He looks very disinterested in playing physical football and is a finesse player without many pass rush moves, which is why I am not very high on him as a prospect. I think he has a lot of potential as a 3-4 rush linebacker, but he is a raw prospect. I?m worried about his game intangibles. Kindle is a projected second-round pick.
Player Comparison: Kamerion Wimbley. Wimbley has had an inconsistent career. He lacks physicality, but he has great athleticism like Kindle.
