PLAYER ANALYSIS
High-energy inside linebacker with a willing spirit and a strong desire to get to as many plays as possible. Tauaefa has the size and frame of a thumper inside, but needs to do a better job of imposing his will rather than trying to elude blocks so often. He is a two-down linebacker with coverage limitations who needs to do a better job of playing with patience in his flow, but he's got a shot if he can embrace a role of banger and prove himself as a core special teamer.
