Azeem Victor:
STRENGTHS
Looks the part of an NFL linebacker with broad shoulders, a v-shaped torso and good overall weight distribution, as well as room for additional muscle mass. Seems to enjoy the physicality of the game, playing with the raw fury of the traditional glass-eating linebacker. Aggressively takes on would-be blockers with an explosive punch and looks to take them out, sometimes knocking they and the ball-carrier into each other for two "tackles" on the same play... Lowers his shoulder and drives his hips into ball-carriers to deliver big hits and isn't satisfied with that, twisting opponents as they go to the ground and even getting in extra shots as until the echo of the whistle. Very good body control in tight spaces, showing the slippery athleticism to elude blockers and split gaps to create spark big plays at the line of scrimmage or when in pursuit. Good change of direction and a smooth accelerator among linebackers, showing graduate-level awareness of potential pass-catchers around him as well as the routes they might be running, cutting off passing angles. Counters his reputation as a trouble-maker with charitable work including his own "Azeem's Dream" which organizes donated backpacks and other school supplies and delivers them to children in need. -- Rob Rang 2/3/2018
WEAKNESSES
Too often a step late to the action, showing more of a read-and-react style rather than anticipating where the ball is going. Once he sees where the ball is headed, too often Victor takes risky angles to get it, undercutting would-be blockers and allowing runners who see him coming to pony up to their cavalry to hide and squirt free on the other side, resulting in the kind of missed assignments that can leave coaches (and teammates) frustrated... Gets grabby in coverage, toeing the line between holding and providing a physical jam to re-route running backs and tight ends... Gets a bit ahead of himself as a tackler, at times, loading up to deliver a big hit and leaving cutback opportunities. Doesn't break down consistently, reaching his arms out to grab hold and 'rassle (or throw) ball-carriers to the ground rather than using traditional textbook tackling technique. Plays with little regard for his own safety, flailing his limbs around the pile and leaving himself vulnerable with a broken leg (2016) already in his medical chart... Comes with significant off-field red-flags which require further investigation. - Rob Rang 2/3/2018
COMPARES TO
Vontaze Burfict, Bengals - From their combative playing style to their off-field concerns to the fact that both - when under control - are starting caliber NFL linebackers, the chain linking the admittedly stouter 6-1, 250 pound Burfict and Victor is just too obvious to ignore.
IN OUR VIEW
Victor's career at Washington certainly ended on a sour note but if he can convince teams during interviews at the Combine that he has matured since, he possesses the talent to warrant draft consideration. He is an instinctive, physical linebacker who not only will make a team, he'll contend for early playing time with the raw talent to project as a future starter.
Suspended twice last season, failed drug test, and had DUI his junior season. Gruden don't fukk with the choir boys that Reggie drafts, Gruden has returned the feelings already. 
Guenther might have got his Burfict. 
This defense on paper already looks to be the best defense Mack has been on to date.
