2019 Draft Prospects To Keep An Eye On

[charger1993]

reading the Dexter Lawrence report/analysis.... sure seems to check all the (Chargers) boxes,

http://www.nfl.com/draft/tracker/prospects

My only concern. And i mean only with dexter is the foot injury he had his sophomore year. He said he played at 50 percent that year. And it makes me nervous not knowing how bad it was. Your feet are important in the trenches.

Here is a stud from my Alma Mater NIU DE/LB Sutton Smith, reminds me of Bosa with his motor

Great article here when recruited by Nick Saban;

My concern is he is 355 lbs. I'd think if any 3-4 teams are ahead of us they would want him for NT since those types are hard to find. I don't expect him to be there for that reason. Like if Green Bay is still going to run a 3-4 with their new HC, he would be great for them. Their NTs aren't that great.

Did you see the report that Scharping had a rough week in Mobile ?

I have become a little cautious about this prospect.

However he could end up bouncing back and being a value selection.

Well yeah other teams wanting him is a concern. But i was talking about physically

We know the Philadelphia EaglesHeight/weight listings are from (probably unreliable) school listings unless otherwise noted.

• Players listed have at least 3 games of film study done.
• Final Grade results from a formula that takes into account universal factors (play strength, mental processing, etc.) and position-specific traits (use of hands, first step explosiveness, pass rush ability, etc.)
• Grading not final. More film may be required & athleticism score includes elements of athletic testing.

1. QUINNEN WILLIAMSAlabamaLSU and Ole MissSummary: Immediate impact starter. Run to the podium.
Grade: 85.7 (Early 1st Round)



2. ED OLIVERHouston

Oliver received a ton of hypeweird situation with his coaching staffSummary: Immediate starter at 3-tech and instant upgrade to pass rush.

Grade: 81.0 (Early/Mid 1st Round)



3. JEFFERY SIMMONSMississippi State

Love the player, hate the backstorySummary: Immediate, 3-down starter. Background flag.

Grade: 80.3 (Early/Mid 1st Round)


4. CHRISTIAN WILKINSClemsonlinked to the Eagles a ton as we work through the pre-draft process.

Summary: Immediate starter from multiple inside alignments. 3-down player.

Grade: 74.6 (Early 2nd Round)


5. Ohio StateSummary: Situational pass rusher with future 3-down starter potential.

Grade: 69.6 (Late 2nd Round)

• TexasCharles OmenihuOklahoma and Oklahoma State, which made the entire defense gas out quick. Is it a cause for concern? Probably not, as OmenihuMichiganRashan GaryGary. His lack of consistency, sputtering motor, and lack of a plan as a pass rusher are to prevalent on film for me to feel comfortable selecting him in the first round.
• The Combine will be important for Notre DameJerry TilleryDexter Lawrence keeps getting mocked in the first round, and to the Eagles as wellArizona StateRenell WrenTexas A&MDaylon Mack impressed during Shrine Week, which earned him a meeting with the Eagles. He was then bumped up to the Senior BowlIsaiah Buggs and MiamiGerald Willis but early returns indicate they would not threaten the top 5 of the group.

[Formula 21]

If you're just looking for a guy to clog up the middle on early downs, Mack provides good value in the later rounds. And a a 0/1 tech, I think that's about all you're going to get out of the position. +300 pound guys just don't rush the passer well.

Has had some balance issues when trying to turn tight corners before. Built-low to the ground so his lack of flexibility is easier to overcome, but does not appear to stand out in this way on tape.
Played hard and physical this season. Motor was impressive. Appeared to have lost some weight after playing too heavy as a junior. Does get rotated out fairly often, but likely to be the same case in the NFL anyway.

Thank you for the update !

There are mixed reviews at Oline...and Linebacker.

I need the Combine to decide for myself who can play pass defense.

[ChargingBolts]

Sutton Smith keeps surprising people, the amount he lifts is amazing, 500 lb squats, he can do per the article 33 reps of 225 lbs which no one at that position has done, but let's say he can't play DE or even LB he was a RB recruited by Saban, I think he would make a great Safety.

My interests at the combine are in the 10 & 20 yard splits for everyone, 40s for skill players/DBs/undersized LBs, height/weight/wingspan/etc, explosion skills tests, effort in drills, competitiveinstincts, and just natural athletic ability displayed.
