Daniel Archibong - Defensive Tackle Temple Owls Scouting Report

Scouting report for NFL Draft prospect Daniel Archibong

DANIEL ARCHIBONG | Temple | DT | #6 | rSr | 6046 | 300 | 5.10e | Springfield, PA | Springfield HS | 09.12.97

Overview: 

Standing over 6-foot-4 and 300 pounds, Archibong possesses the size, arm length and strength that defensive line coaches crave along the interior line. Archibong demonstrates the ability to neutralize double teams and flashes potential as a two-gap run-defender because of his arm length. He wins with a violent rip move and a strong bull-rush that is extremely effective when he is able to get his arms fully extended. Despite possessing many desirable physical traits, quick-twitch athleticism concerns plague Archibong’s potential at the next level. He struggles to consistently fire off the ball with the necessary speed and quickness to secure proper hand placement. This neutralizes his arm length and causes too many stalemates in both the run and pass game. Overall, the four-year starter profiles as an undrafted free agent with intrigue if he can improve the use of his hands and explosiveness out of his stance.
