Overview
Klug was a defensive tackle in college but is a 'tweener at the next level whose likely destination is as a strong-side end in a 4-3 or 3-4 five-technique. Has impressive quickness off the ball, incredibly active and fast hands, and outstanding competitiveness. Uses his get off to beat offensive lineman to their spot. Hands are always moving to get off blocks and pursue the ball-carrier or get in position to bat down passes. However, he lacks the explosiveness to consistently apply pressure and is not a dominant anchor. Klug may need to wait until Day 3, but he'll be drafted.
Analysis
Weaknesses
Does not possess the size or power to be an adequate anchor on the inside at the next level. Can not adequately take on the double team. Limited as a pass rusher. Lacks the pure strength to consistently bull rush. Lacks the burst to close after getting off blocks.

| Grade | Title | Draft (Round) | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 96-100 | Future Hall of Famer | Top Pick | A once-in-a-generation type prospect who could change how his position is played |
| 85-95 | Immediate Starter | 1st | An impact player with the ability/intangibles to become a Pro Bowl player. Expect to start immediately except in a unique situation (i.e. behind a veteran starter). |
| 70-84 | Eventual Starter | 2nd-3rd | A quality player who will contribute to the team early on and is expected to develop into a starter. A reliable player who brings value to the position. |
| 50-69 | Draftable Player | 4th-7th | A prospect with the ability to make team as a backup/role player. Needs to be a special teams contributor at applicable positions. Players in the high range of this category might have long-term potential. |
| 20-49 | Free Agent | UDFA | A player with solid measurables, intangibles, college achievements, or a developing skill that warrants an opportunity in an NFL camp. In the right situation, he could earn a place on a 53-man roster, but most likely will be a practice squad player or a camp body. |
