IPS Take On Reeves: A long and athletic prospect, Reeves is frequently used in a two-point stance as a pass-rusher where his length gives him an edge over opposing tackles.
The questions for him are how will his frame develop, and can he play with the leverage needed to stay at defensive end?
He is quick for his size and disruptive, and Reeves could potentially grow into a defensive tackle or offensive tackle if his frame explodes on the next level.
He has a big-time ceiling and could certainly develop into a major college player.
