T.J. Searcy Scouting Summary
Charles Power
04/17/22

Physically-gifted defensive lineman with the athletic profile and frame that points to a high upside. One of the more physically impressive defensive line prospects in the 2023 cycle. Checked in at over 6-foot-5 and 242 pounds with a 6-foot-11 wing-span prior to his senior season. Is a highly flexible and functional athlete, particularly in the camp setting. Has quick feet and looks to be coordinated. Shows off his athleticism on the basketball court where he shows above-the-rim bounce. Has also posted strong marks in the shot put (over 47 feet as a sophomore). Plays as an outside linebacker for his high school, often playing in space. Does see limited pass rush opportunities. Has advanced on-field movement skills at his size. Also plays as an h-back and blocking tight end on offense. A developmental projection as a line of scrimmage player, given his lack of experience in the trenches. Will need to increase his production as a senior. More of a top physical talent than a dominant player at this juncture. Could end up as an EDGE prospect pending how his body develops.
