Loved his pad level --- it never changes until he drops his hips to tackle. A lot of LBs at the snap will "drop" an initial 2-3 inches in order to engage motion .... LBs who are well coached and instinctive don't waste any motion, they just flow free uninhibited at the snap while reading their keys.
And he never had a high tackle in that film, either. He was consistently rolling his hips/leverage into the lower mid torso of the opponent.
Not great too end speed, but quick and hips were fluid. I think he will projected as a strong side OLB in the 3-4 defense we run currently. But he could very well stay at the Mike LB.

looks like a high schooler playing in junior high

I really like the play at about 45 seconds in where he tackles the blocker and the ball carrier at the same time.
