![]() ![]() Overall, Sewell must develop his body angles, timing and finishing skills, but he has prestigious big man balance, mobility and football instincts. ![]() Not only does he offer impressive physical traits, but his split-second reads and reflexes also are advanced for a player his age (Cristobal: “I think of him as overall the best football player I’ve been around…the combination of football IQ, want to, work ethic and raw ability”). Penei Sewell, OT, Oregon (6-foot-5, 331 pounds)įor a blocker with his size and strength, Sewell is astonishingly efficient with his movement patterns due to his natural flexibility and footwork. Overall, Chase creates separation with his gear-changing acceleration and is an elite finisher with his physical ball skills, displaying equal parts competitive toughness and playmaking skills to be an NFL No. He is an above average athlete and appears very natural with his route movements, but needs to do a better job making every route look the same off the line of scrimmage. Ja’Marr Chase, WR, LSU (6-foot-0, 201 pounds)Ĭhase is extremely talented after the catch and with the ball in the air, exemplifying the “my ball” attitude to consistently win the catch point (plays like a smaller Larry Fitzgerald). He will compete for NFL starting reps as a rookie.Ĥ. Overall, Wilson doesn’t have an ideal body type, but his natural accuracy, off-platform skills and ability to make great spontaneous decisions translate to any level of football. While he can be quick to bail and allow his mechanics to break down, he thrives moving the pocket and improvising. He shows a natural feel for placement and touch. Zach Wilson, QB, BYU (6-foot-2, 214 pounds)Ī quick-minded player, Wilson competes with the creativity and ball-handling skills to make plays as a passer. ![]() He projects as a unique “move” tight end and one of the best talents in this draft.ģ. Overall, Pitts boasts special athleticism to separate in coverage and the elite pass-catching skills to be a mismatch playmaker similar to Darren Waller. Still, he should be evaluated more as a weapon than a traditional tight end. Although he lacks the body power to sustain or drive block, he is a willing and competitive contributor as a blocker. Kyle Pitts, TE, Florida (6-foot-6, 245 pounds)ĭescribed as a “unicorn” by the Florida coaching staff, Pitts is what a twitchy big man looks like, using his natural reflexes, flexible movements and athletic ball skills to be a cheat code as a pass-catcher. 1 player in the class and an immediate, scheme-diverse starter.Ģ. Overall, Lawrence is a generational talent with the physical (size, athleticism, arm talent) and mental (processing speed, intangibles) traits to become one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. The Clemson “quick game” offense helped simplify things for him and his consistency needs continued development, but he is an accurate passer with the creativity and decision-making to execute at a high level. Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson (6-foot-6, 213 pounds)įrom his feet to his eyes to his delivery, Lawrence is quick in everything he does (too fast at times), playing with composed urgency and the body type that should hold up to the violence of an NFL season. But here is how I stacked the top 300 prospects:ġ. My rankings might differ from others and they will certainly be different than how the draft actually plays out. ![]() 3 overall.īeauty is in the eye of the beholder and that is especially true in the NFL Draft.
