Read EvaluationCJ Marable | Prep Redzone Scout
Very much a player built for the modern game. Excellent athlete with sideline-to-sideline range; works hard to pursue opposing ballcarriers. Great suddenness to sift through traffic and get to the ball. Typically able to run around blockers, but shows good extension and a better-than-anticipated anchor when taking on opposing linemen. Has quick feet and is rangy when making drops in zone coverage. Can stick with opposing receivers/tight ends down the seams. Easily athletic enough to carry opposing backs into the flats. Closes quickly when working as a spy. Has been able to find lanes to the quarterback.

Curtis has been on the college radar for a few season’s now and his stock still remains high headed into his senior year as one of the best hybrid linebackers in his class. Committed to Michigan, Curtis is a tall, long and rangy edge linebacker that can rush the backfield but also drop in space, using his length and lower base mobility to make plays in pass coverage. Watching his highlights, Curtis has a knack for always being around the ball, making big plays against the pass but also showing the range to chase down the ball in the run game. His ranking is a little low right due to his lack of size in the weight department but he has the frame to pack on more weight once he arrives in Ann Arbor and give the Wolverines an athletic playmaker that can be moved to multiple areas within their defense.

Curtis can easily move through the trash and shuffle from gap-gap. He’s able to hold his own when head-up with linemen. Can win engagements with technique and timing, displaying stack and shed. Curtis is a strong open field tackler. He brings his pads with him and stays true to his fundamentals.
