Analysis

Another sturdy, big-bodied lineman in Iowa’s recruiting class, Stephens showed the ability to stabilize defensive linemen and move them into the second level with ease. He’s solid in both the run and pass game, creating holes for tailbacks and spreading out the pocket when his team went to the air. Stephens showed the ability to work as a lead blocker, too.

Stephens also plays defensive end, so he's difficult for opponents to handle on both sides of the ball.
