Overview
Lewis was a four-year starter for the Sooners and the productive, competitive quarterback of their defense. He plays in one of the few true 3-4 schemes at the collegiate level and has value in that he can do that right away at the next level. He is a strong tackler and has fourth-round value to play right away and be a special teams contributor.
Analysis
Strengths
He is an athlete and is quick twitched off the snap. He is good to shed blocks and has to be considering the scheme he plays in, where offensive lines are up to the second level on him often. He is great in pursuit of outside runs and has the speed to get there. He displays a nice, athletic pass drop where he can flip his hips and set to react to balls and men coming across the middle. An aware, athletic linebacker with high tackle production.
Weaknesses
Travis can diagnose the play late at times, and can struggle when runners are coming directly at him. He tackles well in pursuit from the side but can't set his butt to uncoil his hips and deliver a blow at a runner coming directly at him. He has a good pass set but can't run well with tight ends in man across the field.
