He's a weird, weird prospect. I like him, but I can certainly understand why some don't. I just take some umbrage with the idea that he's Ramik Wilson picking around the pile or Donnie Edwards getting carried 5 yards past first contact. What he does, he does on purpose and not because he's tentative. He's a willing tackler, he just appears to have always gotten great results with this odd technique of his so he still uses it.

It's Hawk Tackling. I haven't checked, but would be willing to bet the majority of the team tackles similarly. Get used to it... everyone will be tackling similarly within 10 years. I just started teaching it this year.
