Blacklock is incredibly quick, making him a great pass rusher because he is able to get around blockers and get through gaps. He is quick out of his stance whit gives him momentum and a head start on blockers, making him good at power moves in addition to his quickness. Against the run Blacklock has been inconsistent and needs a lot of work. Overall, Blacklock isn't great as a run defender but he has rare pass rushing gifts and could become one of the best interior pass rushers in the league with some development.
