2021 TPB Member's Draft Prospect Rankings

[Boltjolt]

The 4i's I'm looking at now no longer have to be 300+ lbs.
3rd: Osa
4th: Stills
4th: Obeyingo (although injured... maybe 5th)
5th: Mustafa

I was looking for my top 100 and wanted to see four different guys and he was one. Not necessarily for us.

Good stuff guys. Happy to see more members participating here this year.

It's a challenge. Forcing more tape watching, but willing to stretch it to 100.
I'll add to it in the coming days and change it around as things progress.

Likewise. My final board will be posted a couple weeks before the draft.

[Bolt Dude]

Indeed.

I’m not even sure if he’s coming out as SHSU is playing like a 6 game season starting this Saturday I believe.

Draft slotting/targeting can be a gamble.
Do you see if a small school kid will be there on day 3? Is a CB - 6’4”/200# - 4.4, insane agility, incredible ballskills, explosive instant acceleration for recovery burst, vision to see route concepts develop, produced 12 turnover in 3 seasons, and will knock the snot out of any ball carrier?

You ever figure out if your boy Zyon McCollum is coming out this year?

Its way past time to declare so if he hasnt, he isnt. CJ Verdell i dont think declared either who is in his top 160.

In your top 50 i see you have Oweh at #19. I havent put him down yet and im at 60 or so. He got shut down by Michigan. He didnt look good.

Tufele got shut down by a non ranked OG against BYU. Not sure if you just watch highlights or not ....but no way imo those two are first round picks. Not trying to criticize just wondering what you see in them to be so high. Maybe im missing something but i dont see first round talent there.

Judging whether or not a player will succeed in the pros is far from an exact science. If anyone had a flawless methodology we’d see way fewer busts. Even the best in the biz miss regularly. We don’t all see things the same and that’s what makes this fun for us Draftniks.

That being said, I respect your feedback.

I always start with highlights, then if I like what I see, I start watching full tape and reading reports, etc.
Been doing that for 20 years.

Oweh is an interesting one to me. I realize that he hasn’t put up the numbers and I don’t expect him to have an impact as a rookie. He’s as raw as they get. But his athletic profile screams potential and I think he’s got the right attitude. If he’s coachable then he’ll be a helluva player in a year or 2.

I’m a USC and UW fan so I never miss those games.

The thing I like about Tufele is his ability to drive OGs back then disengage from blocks with excellent timing in order to disrupt a play and/or make a play on the ball. It takes raw power, length, and wiggle to get that done the way he does.

That’s the skill-set that jumped out to me about Suh way back in the day. Don’t get me wrong, Tufele is not Suh. But he has shades of his abilities—more so than any other DT I’ve seen in this draft.

Tufele’s also an elite athlete for his size, anchors well, and has a great motor. I think he’s perfect for a 4 tech.

Just looking for feedback. Its not just you, im seeing what Jeremiah has in his top 50 and kinda puzzled at a few as well....but he is the paid professional lol.

Oweh is ranked high in a lot of places(Jeremiah has him like #33...i think) but he also reminds me a little of Mel on a lessor scale. Always a little late to the party and against Michigan, he disapeared.
Tufele i was a little stunned when watching the BYU tape. He was getting shoved around by that OG. Ill have to watch some more. I was looking at 4 DTs at the time.

I’m not sure what the rules are as some FCS conferences are playing this spring. He is a senior. Does he have to declare? SHSU played yesterday and Zyon looked great in coverage, fast, and physical.

Here is my preliminary BIG BOARD.
There may slightly change due to ProDays, Regional Combines, errors in my typing skills, and prospects I simply missed.

Nice work, Ninja. Suppose someone like Farley or Surtain drops to #13. If 4-5 QB's go in the top 12, this is a possibility. Suppose we choose either one of the two, grab our shutdown corner for the next 10 years, then trade back into round 1 by packaging our 2nd rounder and one of our 3rd rounders. Which O-lineman do you think will be there in late round 1 that you would like us to pick?

I’d say there’s a Good chance for someone like Little, Humphrey, Radunz, Davis, Eichenberg, Jenkins or Cosmi. Ninja will say Mayfield too, but I’m not a fan.
