PostSportsPlus: New York Post expert’s guide to the 100 best NFL Draft prospects
Attacks downfield, including with touch along the sidelines, but had four all-world receivers in college. Needs to improve decisiveness when plays break down, possibly by scrambling more frequently, as he did in his final game.Allowed a mind-boggling 3.3 yards per target last season, per Pro Football Focus. At his best sagging off in coverage and using his instincts to drive on the ball . Feisty tackler close to line of scrimmage.Freakish wingspan and quickness. Recorded 14 sacks and 27.
More complete prospect than Kincaid, but not a four-wide game-changer. Old-school ability to put his hand in the dirt as a sixth run-blocking pseudo-offensive lineman, but that isn’t to discount his 18 career touchdowns boxing out defenders.Seen as a work in progress with big upside once he expands repertoire of moves . Quick off the ball whether standing up or with hand in dirt. Three-down ability.
Slot receiver who finds another gear after the catch. A nightmare on a deep route even against bump-and-run press coverage. If he is a one-trick pony, it’s worth it. Five of 15 touchdowns last season against Alabama.Much-improved prospect from one year ago — upping career totals to 20.5 sacks and eight forced fumbles — and still rising. Plays with savvy and energy more than explosion. Hunts the ball until the whistle.34.
Fits a position-less defense, lining up on the weak side or the strong side. Covers tight ends better than most safeties, but can blitz or spy a mobile quarterback because of speed. Missed tackles are a result of bad angles.Case in point that strong showing in drills at Senior Bowl and high-end testing at Combine can elevate a mid-rounder. Changing positions from a 3-4 end to outside linebacker will help run defense. Highly regarded pass-rush spin move.
Stock slipped last season as he was targeted frequently in two playoff games. Elite speed as seen on pick-6 to clinch 2021 national title. Jars the football loose even when boxed out. Could have to switch to free safety for a man coverage defense, a scout told ESPN.Just eight catches over first three seasons before imposing his size and ball skills en route to 1,081 yards in 2021. Toughness to play through injury and make catches in traffic. Won’t take the top off defense.
