Expert Analysis
Ed OBrien | Prep Redzone Scout
McNair is a disruptive, high-motor linebacker who plays fast, physical, and loves to come downhill. His film highlights the ability to pressure the quarterback, shed blocks, and finish plays with power. I like what I see in McNair from an instincts standpoint, he has a knack for putting himself in position to impact the play. Against the run, he makes some nice tackles by controlling the gap and meeting the running back at the line of scrimmage. Would like to see how he looks flowing sideline-to-sideline. Will most likely see more pass coverage reps during the offseason (at camps, 7v7, etc).
