He's just a kid but this is an amazing breakdown on Tindall's strengths and weaknesses. We found a keeper in Round 3 for our Defense

Just a kid? His breakdown is better than almost everyone that I've heard break down Tindall's film.
Give this kid some applause. Great job!!!
Right!
He uses coaching terms that are not well known football terms. I was really impressed not just by his lingo but also by the ideas he shared. He was spot on!

I haven't watched all these breakdowns yet so sorry if I'm saying something they already said, but IMO Tindall is a very much a potential upgrade to Roberts. I think Roberts is decent as a two-down backer for us. I don't think he's as bad as some here believe, but I still felt an upgrade was desirable. Tindall is a more athletic version of Roberts. He can be that tackle to tackle thumper who is a little lighter than ideal but has great acceleration, is a good tackler and has pretty good instincts (He can be fooled at times, but his instincts are decent). That's Tindall too, but Tindall also adds more speed and better explosive numbers (vertical and broad jump). That gives him a better chance of being effective in coverage. We don't know for sure b/c he wasn't used in coverage much in college, but he looked capable in the Combine drills. He's at least more capable than Roberts at dropping into hook zones and breaking on the receiver. But like Roberts he doesn't have those loose hips to track the more shifty receivers in man. So basically, better Roberts. He'll obviously need time to acclimate and learn the defense, but I expect the goal is that he'll get more snaps in the second half of the season and be the starter next year.
If you read the post directly above yours, I provided a comparison to a player on the Dolphins.
This makes me uncomfortable. Hahaha. It’s like the voice is dubbed over.
He plays fast! I also think he takes great angles. I expect him to play early and start soon.
Very good breakdown, don't know what age he is, but amazing job.
I personally am beyond excited to see him in action, and think how good he could end up could be skies the limit.
He was not a regular starter, so he does have work to do, but on such an, great and awesome LB squad, to still be the most impressive on big plays with limited time on the field is eye opening.
He is also the best combination of the two LBs that went before him, with a nice combination of great speed, and ferocious hitting.
Roberts is still a good LB to have, especially when you have a 3rd or 4th and short situation, Roberts is fearless, and will go into the line like Battering Ram. Though Tindall has work to do to get used to the NFL, I will be surprised if he does nor take tye starting job by the 2nd or 3rd week.
