Martin is a banger at inside linebacker. He’s been a consistent tackle collector over the last three seasons, playing with the violence and instincts teams look for inside. He’s sturdy enough to take on blocks and clog his run fits. His lack of length shows up at times as a tackler and he will lose some ground in pursuit when runs spill wide. He’s capable as a blitzer but was almost never asked to cover man-to-man at Memphis. Martin has the intensity, production and play strength to fit as a two-down backup and special-teams contributor.
