Gervon Dexter is a bit slept on here at CP:
SCOUTING REPORT: STRENGTHS
Dexter has the lateral agility and balance to cover two gaps, and Dexter shows some good closing burst when moving down the line in pursuit.
He explodes off the line with a quick first step, with agile feet to counter inside and closing burst to finish plays.
Made Bruce Feldman's Freak's List - ranked #83. He wrote, "This is a huge man who moves well at 6-5 1/2, 313 pounds with 24 percent body fat. Dexter squats 655 pounds and benches 425. “Gervon is a unique body type with an elite mixture of height, length, and muscle makeup,” strength coach Mark Hocke said. “He’s strong enough to hold the point and quick enough to affect the QB, making him an every down QB nightmare.”"
He’s ready for the physicality of the NFL; he has a stout build, strong core, and powerful limbs to step in right away as a three-down player.
He has the heavy hands and upper-body strength to win with power. Dexter drops his weight and anchors well against the run, holding up at the point of attack and capable of occupying double teams.
Good strength and balance to sit down, lock out and create a pile, leading to possibilities inside and out (in the 3-4).
