Dallas Turner Scouting Report
Strengths
Turner’s athleticism is highlighted by his fluidity, agility, and ability to change direction seamlessly. This allows him to pursue ball carriers effectively in open space and handle a variety of assignments. Combined with his length, Turner’s athleticism gives him the versatility to pull off a variety of pass-rush moves that make him difficult to predict and counter.
Turner has an elite first-step that allows him to explode off the line when rushing the passer. His quickness off the line often forces opposing linemen to play off their back foot which gives Turner an edge.
Weaknesses
Turner lacks elite level strength that it requires to consistently take-on blocks. He can be disrupted by a strong tackle or even tight end in both the pass and run game which you’d like to see improve in order to reach his ceiling.
Despite possessing athleticism and burst, Turner’s pass-rush repertoire lacks refinement, and he relies too heavily on his quickness off the line. If he can become more polished with his pass-rush moves, Turner could become one of the better edge rushers in the league.
