MalcolmSimpson

Versatile, athletic defender with considerable untapped potential. Measured around 6-foot-3, 265 pounds prior to his senior season. Has plus length with arms that measure over 34 inches and a frame to continue adding weight. Fantastic functional athlete at his size with quickness and fluidity. Lined up on the edge, the interior, and even at off-ball linebacker as a senior. Disruptive interior pass rusher. Shows speed-to-power ability. Outstanding closing speed and showed encouraging strain while chasing plays in pursuit. Best year of high school football as a senior after transferring to Hitchcock (Texas) High. Doubles as a very good high school basketball player who regularly scores in double figures and shows above-the-rim bounce. Will need to continue developing physically and adding to the technical side of his game. A high ceiling prospect with a lower floor considering his lack of proven production year-over-year.
