Paxson: "I get to the ball and I'm great at pass rushing. I'm very athletic for my size too. I'm quicker than most OLs and I have quick hands. I have a knack for the ball. I want to improve my overall speed and I need to work on my technique. I'd like to shield off blockers better too."

Scouting Report: Paxson is a lot like Georgia’s David Pollack, an All-American defensive end for the Bulldogs. He is cat quick off the ball and is a relentless playmaker on defense, whether he’s rushing the passer or chasing the ball carrier in pursuit. He’s big and physical but his two best attributes are his speed and quickness. He could play defensive end in college but may grow into a defensive tackle before it’s all said and done.
