Powerful and thick with an old-school mentality as an interior linebacker, Njongmeta is limited by heavier feet and a lack of speed or agility. He's physical in block take-ons and shows an ability to crash through gaps as a run blitzer, but his impact on a game will diminish once the action leaves the box. He's decent at reading the run design but misses too many tackles against runners with wiggle. Njongmeta might appeal to teams desiring depth as a two-down thumper, but he might not have enough functional cover talent to be more than that.
