Tavai is a tough veteran who knows how to fit the run and bring order to a thin spot. He is not a flashy athlete, but he brings an experienced, physical presence to the linebacker rotation.
Strengths: Substantial NFL starting experience, toughness and run-game instincts make him a useful stabilizing reserve.
Weaknesses: His range is limited compared with younger linebackers, and spread offenses can test him in longer coverage situations.
