1. OT La’el Collins, LSU 6-4, 305
– Line him up and let him destroy the man in his way. He might not be an ideal pass protector, and he might be more of a mauler then an athlete, but he’s going to be an intimidating force no matter where he plays. He’s going to be a tone-setter for a line.
– Is he a blasting, run-blocking guard in a tackle’s body? He might be a Right Tackle Only, and he might be a fantastic Right Tackle Only, but he showed in offseason workouts that he has the raw tools to give it a shot on the other side. He’s smooth for a player of his size, running and cutting without a problem – he looks the part.
Yes or No?: Already a possible first round prospect, he cemented his spot after some great offseason workouts … until the drama. He could turn out to be the best all-around run blocker in the draft, but first he has to figure out his situation after being interviewed – not charged – in connection with the death of his former girlfriend.
Round Value: First Round

2. FS Cody Prewitt, Ole Miss 6-2, 208
– All of a sudden, after his pro day he might be even more athletic than originally considered tearing off a 4.46 – he ran a 4.6 at the combine – to go along with his quickness and explosion. He has the raw skills, and he’s a terrific all-around football player who always knows where he’s supposed to be.
– There’s a chance he could be a special player who goes beyond the tools. He knows how to play with tough tackling ability and nice ball skills. He’ll make quarterbacks play in a big way when they get sloppy or make mistakes.
Yes or No?: Absolutely. He’s the type of player who hangs around in the secondary and becomes a star and a leader. Take him, plug him in, get production.
Round Value: Second Round

3. SS Anthony Harris, Virginia 6-1, 183
– Some guys just know how to attack the ball and win battles, and that’s Harris. While he’s not a blazer, he’s always a half-step ahead – he’s around the ball and is great at coming up with the really big play.
– He makes plays against the pass like a corner, but he’s also built a bit like one. He won’t shy away from contact, but he’s not going to push anyone around. He’s not going to be as physical as some teams might like, but he’ll save the D’s bacon his share of times.
Yes or No?: He’s not going to be for everyone. His future will be as a whale of a nickel or dime defender on certain packages, but you want him roaming free and patrolling your secondary.
Round Value: Third Round

4. FS Kurtis Drummond, Michigan State 6-1, 208
– Already bringing good size, he’s also an explosive athlete who makes himself bigger with his leaping ability. Not only does he look the part, he plays it, too, as a functional tackler who has a knack for always being around the ball.
– While he’s a talent, he was also helped out in a big way by being surrounded by some of the best defensive backs in college football. He didn’t need to come up with the thump, and he didn’t. He’ll make the play, but he’s not an intimidating force.
Yes or No?: Teams probably won’t like him as much as they should because the tape doesn’t always match the stats, but he’ll hold his own if given space to roam free and make things happen.
Round Value: Third Round

5. OG Josue Matias, Florida State 6-5, 309
– While he was brutally slow and unathletic at the combine, he still has plenty of upside and talent. He blocks like a professional offensive lineman with good leverage and the right size. He might be built like a tackle, but he can more than handle being physical as a guard.
– The upside is enormous. He needs NFL coaching to round out his game – he needs refinement to use his tools consistently, but he spent three years starting at a high level and knows what he’s doing.
Yes or No?: Yes, but he’ll need a year or so before he grows into a killer. He needs to play with a little more power, and he’s not going to do anything down the field, but he could become a great value starter who’s around for a long, long time.
Round Value: Fourth Round

6. DT Bobby Richardson, Indiana 6-3, 283
– Versatile, he’s going to be used more like a defensive end at the next level, but he can work mostly like a tackle in a 3-4 scheme. He’s a true tweener who could move around no matter what the scheme is and produce with a great frame and nice first step off the ball.
– He’s not going to be the type who holds up against the double team, and he’s not going to be an elite run stuffer. He’s going to be athletic and he’s going to be disruptive. There’s a lot to like in terms of what he can bring to an attacking scheme.
Yes or No: Yes, but he doesn’t really have a home. He can start and doesn’t need to be a part of a rotation, but he’s a finesse player – in a good way – and isn’t going to be a tough tone-setter against the run.
Round Value: Fourth Round

7. DE Lynden Trail, Norfolk State 6-7, 269
– The size is there and he’s athletic enough to have been tried out at tight end during Senior Bowl week, but he’s a projection. He’s going to be like a cheaper Dion Jordan in terms of draft status – tall, athletic, versatile, and with the upside to possibly become something outstanding with a little bit of time and work.
– He’s a former wide receiver who’s not quite as fluid as you might think. Even so, he’s strong, athletic, and promising. The tools are there to coach into a player, but he’s hardly a sure thing.
Yes or No: He’s two years away, at the very least, before he can truly show what he can do, but he’s a chance worth taking in the middle rounds. The upside is enormous.
Round Value: Fourth Round

8. FS Tevin McDonald, Eastern Washington 5-11, 195
– Strong enough to be seen as a run stopper and athletic enough to be used in just about any secondary, he’s a good football player who’ll do whatever is needed to make a play. He goes beyond the tools and produces whenever he gets the chance. Put him in the lineup and he’ll be a solid starter.
– The character question is going to be a problem considering he was shoved out of UCLA after reportedly failing a few drug tests. On the field, he’s not an elite athlete and he’s not big enough to be a blaster of a hitter, but he’s going to be knocked down a few pegs because of the other concerns.
Yes or No?: He’s a baller. He might not be the right size, and he might not be the right athlete, and there are certainly other problems and concerns, but he’s a player who’ll make a roster.
Round Value: Fifth Round

9. SS Clayton Geathers, UCF 6-2, 218
– A terrific all-around athlete, he has the right size, the strength to be a big hitter, and explosive leaping ability. A tough, smart veteran, he has the experience to go along with the skills and the tools to become a factor as a big hitter against the run.
– While he has the ability to come up with lots and lots of tackles, he’ll also whiff too much going for the big shot. Okay against the pass, his game is about intimidation and working like an extra linebacker at times.
Yes or No?: In time. There’s lots of upside and plenty of talent with a little technique work as a tackler. While he might not come up with big numbers against the pass, he could turn into a leading tackler and stat-sheet filler if he can be more consistent.
Round Value: Fourth Round

10. TE Wes Saxton, South Alabama 6-3, 248
– One of the elite athletes among the tight ends, he has the right size and he’s explosive. He rolled through the combine with a 4.65 40, and he was among the most explosive in the leaps with a 36” vertical and 119” broad jump. He caught the ball far better at his pro day than he did in Indy.
– He’s a big wide receiver, but can he block? He doesn’t have the bulk, and he doesn’t have the size, but he’ll give it a shot as a run blocker. He’s not a complete tight end, but he could quietly grow into a terrific offensive weapon.
Yes or No: As a specialist, yes. Use him like a No. 2 tight end and a pure receiver, and he’ll produce.
Round Value: Fifth Round

11. DT Derrick Lott, Tennessee-Chattanooga 6-4, 314
– It’s all a question of whether or not he can handle the improved competition. He’s a big-bodied athlete who can really, really move. He shocked everyone with workouts this offseason showing off speed, strength, and outstanding quickness. In terms of being a workout warrior, he was right out of central casting.
– It didn’t work out for him at Georgia after breaking his ankle early on, and he went on to dominate at the lower level. There’s a lot of molding to do and this is it for him athletically and in terms of his body type, but he could be a plug-and-play tackle in any scheme.
Yes or No: This might be the biggest boom-or-bust prospect among the defensive tackles. Everything is there to make a D line coach drool, but can he handle life with the big boys? There are too many positives to his game not to get excited.
Round Value: Fifth Round

12. WR Titus Davis, Central Michigan 6-1, 196
– He knows how to play. He has great hands, he knows how to get open, and he’s a savvy, veteran route-runner who makes things happen. Polished, he’ll need little work or coaching and will operate like a pro from Day One. He’ll make himself into a factor.
– He’s a great football player, and he’s polished with No. 1 target ability, but he doesn’t have elite wheels. He might not be a top-shelf athlete, but he’s a 4.5 runner and has good enough tools to get by.
Yes or No: As long as you’re not expecting Antonio Brown – a fellow Central Michigan receiver – you’ll be happy. He’s not flashy, and he’s not going to dominate, but he’s a professional receiver who quarterbacks will love.
Round Value: Fifth Round

13. ILB Zach Vigil, Utah State 6-2, 240
– There are always guys who seem to fall through the scouting cracks into the late rounds and ends up cranking out huge numbers – welcome to him. With a non-stop motor and a great drive, he finds ways to make plays in the backfield as well as against the run. He’s a producer who’ll do anything needed.
– Can he hold up against power teams? He’s more of an outside linebacker playing inside, and he’s not going to be a tough guy against the nastier ground games, but he can get around the ball.
Yes or No: There were big questions throughout the process about his workout speed matching his on-field production – he ran a terrific 4.67 on his pro day. He might not be a main man for a linebacking corps, but he’ll work his way into a job on special teams until he gets his chance on a D.
Round Value: Fifth Round

14. QB Brandon Bridge, South Alabama 6-4, 229
– Can he become a downfield passer? Does he have enough experience – how long is he going to need before he has any prayer of being an NFL starter? It’s all there, but will he need a year or three before he’s ready for primetime?
– While he was a bit erratic at times this offseason in workouts, he has the arm, he has the mobility, and he looks the part. Now he needs time to throw and throw and throw and throw – he has to try to improve his accuracy. He has to be able to harness all of his tools and grow into the job. Few NFL quarterback have his arm.
Yes or No?: Purely a developmental prospect, there’s a lot to work with but a lot of work to do. If he can get with a true quarterback guru, and if he’s given a few years, there’s a world of upside that most quarterbacks in this draft don’t have.
Round Value: Sixth Round

15. C B.J. Finney, Kansas State 6-4, 318
– Not quite as strong as expected at the combine, and not athletic in any way, he doesn’t look the part, but he’s a purely great football player. No one will bring a better effort and he always handled himself more than fine as the leader and anchor of a good Kansas State attack.
– Huge, he’s more of a mauler than most of the centers in the draft. Despite looking decent in Indianapolis, he’ll never do anything on the move and he’ll get killed from time to time by the interior speed rushers, but he’s an ultra-reliable anchor who can step in and start for a decade.
Yes or No?: Yes, but don’t expect him to be anything special. He’s a starting NFL center, but that’s it. He’s not going to be the best player on a line and he’s not going to be a regular all-star, but he can play.
Round Value: Fifth Round

16. DE Cedric Reed, Texas 6-5, 269
– He’s more of a sound, solid end than a dangerous playmaker who’ll destroy someone’s backfield. He’s good enough to start at an NFL level, but he’s not going to be a pass rusher who’ll scare anyone from the outside.
– To go cliché, he has to do more than look like Tarzan. He’s an NFL player, and he’s going to find a home in the league, but, at some point, can he blow someone’s doors off with the explosion and speed to go along with the appearance? The tools are in place, but they have to translate.
Yes or No: There’s a lot of upside. He’s a boring pick because he’s not going to show much flash, but he’s the type of end who ends up hanging around the league for a while because he’ll do a little of everything right – and he’ll progress.
Round Value: Fifth Round

17. ILB Mike Hull, Penn State 6-0, 237
– He can play inside or out, showing off tremendous workout skills in Indy and upping his stock in a big way. He might not be big enough for the interior, but he’s strong, quick, and is tough as nails. Throw in the try-hard motor, and he’ll fight to make plays.
– While he’s a good hitter, can he hold up? He’s not scrawny, and he’s not all that small, but he’s not exactly built to take on big next-level blockers. He’ll make lots and lots of tackles when he gets his chances, but he’ll also be run over a bit too often.
Yes or No: Yes, as a special teamer and versatile defender who’ll see time in a variety of linebacking roles. He might not be a top starter, but he’ll find a way to be a key part of a defense.
Round Value: Fifth Round

18. DE Zack Wagenmann, Montana 6-3, 247
– While he has tremendous pass rushing stats at the lower level, is he going to check in as a smallish defensive end, or will he purely be an outside linebacker. Could he work as a hybrid, third-down specialist? He’s going to have to find a home.
– Really, really quick, he’s fast enough with good athleticism and straight-line speed, but his real worth is as a fluid, explosive prospect who could be turned loose into a backfield. He has rare tools to work into a defense.
Yes or No: There’s a chance he could turn into a devastating specialist. He’s so fast off the ball that he could become a big play performer, even if he doesn’t have the all-around game and will get erased by anyone who gets a block on him.
Round Value: Fifth Round

19. TE Jean Sifrin, Massachusetts 6-5, 245
– Is he ready right now? Already 27, he’s too old and he’s still a bit of a work in progress. The athleticism is there, and he has the size to make scouts drool, but he needs lots and lots of work. With the right coaching, though, he could become a dangerous backup.
– He fought the ball like he was angry with it during offseason workouts. He’s never going to be the ideal NFL tight end, but if he can get plenty of reps and live with a JUGS machine, there’s a chance he quickly turns into a playmaker.
Yes or No: There’s enough athleticism to give a serious look in a camp, and ideally he works on a practice squad for a year or so with the hope of getting two good years in a pure passing system.
Round Value: Seventh Round

20. RB Michael Dyer, Louisville 5-8, 218
– Problems in a variety of ways kept him from ever turning into the back he was supposed to be after helping to lead Auburn to a national title, but when he was on, he was terrific with plenty of production and good power when he had to crank up the intensity.
– Without a lot of work over the years, there’s plenty of tread left on the tires. He has looked the part in workouts with quickness, strength and athleticism. The payoff could be tremendous.
Yes or No?: There’s no need to draft him, and he has to work on being a receiver, but he could shock and surprise if given a serious chance. Think Bryce Brown without the fumbling.
Round Value: Free Agent
