– get-off; more explosion off the ball
– disengaging blocks quicker
– pass rush move arsenal; excels with a speed rush; ability for other moves is there but needs refining
– run defense
– eye discipline & pursuit angles vs play action & RPO's
– setting the edge
– lean build & playing strength; needs to add functional muscle mass
– a bit of a 'tweener'; will need to develop pass coverage ability because he is most likely an OLB at the next level

»» ELEVATOR FLOOR/CEILING: Malone has chance to contribute to a NFL team right away on special teams. But his ability to become an impact player down in and down out will be determined by how quickly he can transfer & develop his skills into an OLB/Situational EDGE role.
