Dennis Kelly
strengths
Good football pedigree with the bloodlines, experience and toughness. Three year starter. Good height and natural size to work with. Good lateral quickness. Keeps his head on a swivel and plays smart. Has done a nice job adding weight and has room to continue to fill out his frame. Strong presence in the huddle with leadership traits.
weaknesses
Tight hips and doesnt play like a natural bender, too often locking at the knees. Struggles to quickly adjust and change directions. Needs to spend more time in the weight room and add bulk to his frame. Not a glass eater and needs to use his hands more aggressively to jolt at the point of attack. Needs to develop more of a mean streak to eliminate defenders.
