Tillman can move pretty well for a guy with his frame and his ability to change direction helps him make a fair amount of tackles in between the tackles. It’s evident that he has A pretty flexible lower body, but there is more to just being a naturally talented athlete, Tillman has a nice motor, and has several plays where he chases down the back on a toss or stretch. He uses his hands pretty well too, getting good leverage, and for the most part playing low, which is sort of expect at 5’11”. I would like to see him continue to drive his legs while engaged, he does it pretty well, but with thick lower body he could really anchor the middle and even collapse it given enough time. Tillman is pretty slept on this point considering his low film count, but he is a very good DT recruit, and can absolutely be a steady player in a 3-4 scheme at DE or 4-3 at DT. I feel like he has potential as a pass rusher down the road.
