Smaller interior defender with adequate strength and athleticism but a concerning lack of outstanding traits. He plays with decent first-step quickness and has the leverage to post up lesser guards but will struggle in the pros to hold up against the size and strength he will face. He's not a naturally disruptive three-technique and doesn't make enough plays. His pass rush is very average, so he'll need to find his niche as a worker-bee run defender if he hopes to find time as a rotational defender.
Scott is a girthy nose lacking NFL size and length for the position, but he does play with good activity and decent strength. He does a nice job of recognizing which blocker to attack after the snap and has active, strong hands to fight off the center. He plays with good balance, but isn't really a true run plugger in the middle of the defense. Move blocks can reach and wall him off fairly consistently. He plays with a consistent motor, but doesn't have a true go-to element of his game to make a team.
