CEILING POTENTIAL

PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Height is an explosive, bend-driven edge rusher whose game is built on first-step burst, hip flexibility, and pass-rush creativity. At 6’3”, 240 pounds with long strides and loose hips, he wins with speed-to-edge acceleration, inside counters, and high-motor pursuit. His ability to flatten and corner gives him legitimate third-down juice, and his Senior Bowl performance confirmed his one-on-one pass-rush upside. However, a lean frame, limited play strength, and contact-balance issues prevent him from consistently setting the edge or anchoring versus power in the run game. Height projects best as a rotational rush linebacker in a 3-4 or wide-aligned 4-3 front, where he can attack in space and maximize his speed-based disruption without being asked to play heavy early-down snaps.
CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS
Mid-Level Starter Potential (60-64)
A solid, dependable starter with the potential to exceed expectations. They have good athleticism and tools but may lack elite traits. While they show flashes of high-level play, they also have some notable weaknesses that must be developed. These players often need 2-3 years to establish themselves.
