PLAYER ANALYSIS
A two-year starter for the Trojans, Pinkard has outstanding size and strength for a cornerback but lacks great speed, quickness and lateral agility to play on the perimeter. He is a willing tackler but lacks great power and physicality in run support. He doesn't have great recovery burst and isn't quick to transition out of his pedal. Pinkard needs technique and route-recognition work to develop into a contributor at the next level. He has decent ball skills and flashes anticipation to make plays in the passing game. Pinkard possesses obvious size but lacks technique, natural instincts, speed, quickness and has durability concerns, which will hinder his draft status.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Moore is a short, compactly built player with good athleticism and power. He doesn't have ideal footwork and agility for the cornerback position and is a bit of a 'tweener for an NFL secondary. He is inconsistent with his instincts and leveraging the ball in the open field. Moore is tough and competitive but inconsistent as a run-support player. He could improve his overall play with better footwork and technique, as he does have decent speed once he transitions. Moore has been productive over the past two seasons and can contribute as a rookie on special teams and as a nickel back in sub packages.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Galette was a productive four-year starter at linebacker and defensive end in college. He transferred from Temple in 2009 to join the Stillman team, and there have been concerns about his character which likely will hinder his overall draft status. Galette is a versatile athlete who could play stand-up outside linebacker in a 3-4 scheme or contribute as a sub-package pass rusher in an even front. Galette is a very good athlete who plays with natural instincts and reactions. He doesn't have great hips or lateral burst, which will cause him to be a liability in man coverage, but he could develop into an adequate zone defender. He lacks strength at the point defending the run or collapsing the pocket as a pass rusher and can get overpowered by offensive tackles. He is an explosive edge rusher who has value on special teams and nickel packages but concerns about past injuries and off-field issues will need to be investigated.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Cole is a slender built player with a frame that could carry an extra 20 pounds. He is a tough competitive player that is better attacking the line of scrimmage than diagnosing and playing in space. He has adequate speed and range versus the run but is inconsistent finding the level of the ball which makes him late to the pile. Cole uses his hands well to control blockers but needs added overall strength and power to hold the point at the NFL level. Cole lacks great lateral agility and quickness in space which hinders his ability in man coverage but could be effective in combination zone schemes. Cole is a good football player with room to improve in several areas of his game (overall strength, reads and reactions, coverage techniques), but will likely be relegated to a backup role at the next level.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Chancellor has been a very productive safety for the Hokies over the past three years. He has an outstanding combination of size and strength for the position. Chancellor is more of a box safety in that he is much better defending the run than in coverage. He has decent range off the hash and could be effective in combination zone schemes but may be a liability in pure man coverage schemes. He uses his hands well to ward off blockers when filling the alley and flashes to make the big hit. Chancellor is inconsistent with his angles and instincts with the ball in the air. Chancellor is a good football player and should be effective in the right system at the next level. Chancellor should contribute early as a special teams player and a goal line safety.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Jackson has an excellent combination of size and athleticism for the position. He is a very confident defender that will play tight to his opponent in both man and zone coverage schemes. Jackson shows great foot quickness burst and speed to stay with top receivers. He is an instinctive player that is quick to anticipate and jump routes as plays unfold. He is a competitive player but is inconsistent to as a run support defender. Jackson needs to rap up ball carriers better on the perimeter as well as corralling receivers in the open field. Kareem Jackson is an excellent football player that won’t last long on the first day of the 2010 draft if his shoulder checks out.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Conner is an undersized linebacker who was a productive, thee-year starter for the Tigers. He is a tough, hardnosed defender who can be an explosive tackler on contact. He can get engulfed at times versus larger linemen. He doesn't have great lateral quickness and burst but does run well to cover ground in pursuit. He can be inconsistent with his angles and run fits and doesn't always show good instincts reacting as plays unfold. He tends to be out of position with initial alignments and footwork but gives great effort to the pile. Conner is a good football player who has size limitations and needs to develop his coverage skills and overall reactions to contribute at the next level.

Kristick was a productive, two-year starter for Oregon State. He was a durable linebacker over his career but there is a concern with the multiple stingers he has suffered. Kristick has a good frame but lacks bulk (especially in his lower body), which hinders his ability at the point of attack. He is a reliable tackler with decent pop and power on contact. He has good range in pursuit but lacks great quickness and lateral agility to change direction in space. He reads quickly but is inconsistent with his angles and run fits. He shows enough athleticism to be an effective zone coverage defender but may be exploited in pure man schemes. Kristick has limitations but possesses enough tools to be an effective backup as well as special teams contributor.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Clayton was a productive two-year starter for the Sooners' defense. He lacks great size for the position but is a good athlete who shows quickness and range in pursuit. He is a solid open-field tackler, keeping good body positioning and level in space. He is a competitive linebacker but isn't great to take on and shed effectively (especially versus interior power run schemes). He has the lateral agility and quickness to be an effective zone coverage defender but is inconsistent with his angles to the ball as well as biting on run fakes, which gets him out of position. Clayton is a good football player but is limited due to his size, which likely will relegate him to a back-up role and special teams duty.

Williams has been a backup running back for his whole career at LSU and never managed to gain more than 500 yards in a single season. He shows better physical traits for the running back position than his teammate, Charles Scott, but does not get nearly as many touches. His speed, quickness, agility and elusiveness translate to more success at the NFL level but will be a bit of a gamble in that he has yet to show it on a consistent basis. Williams will need a lot of work on route running and blocking techniques but he does have good tools to work with.

Lewis broke into the starting lineup as a sophomore and was productive for three seasons in the Rebels' secondary. He has a good combination of size, strength and athleticism. He is a competitive, instinctive defender who shows range in run support as well as combination zone coverages. He lacks great burst and pure speed in man schemes, but his limitations aren't glaring. He is a quick reactor, taking proper angles and leveraging the ball well. He is a solid tackler but could be more physical on contact. His ball skills are solid but hand dexterity isn't elite. Lewis is a good football player with vocal leadership skills who has a chance to develop into an NFL starter.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Meier is a converted quarterback that made the move to wide receiver his junior year to get on the field. He is a good route runner that knows how to use his size to shield defenders from the ball and shows good strength to the ball when in a crowd. He is a bit of a strider and can sneak by opponents by varying his speed and lulling them to sleep but lacks the top end speed to just run by people. He is a little stiff and struggles to sink his hips and come out of his breaks with a big burst. He lacks the speed and explosiveness to get a lot of yards after the catch. He has a chance as a possession receiver but is not the type teams are looking for as potential starters.

Basped is a big, strong athlete with growth potential. He runs well and has great range for his size, but he needs lots of technique work as both a pass rusher and run defender. He flashes quickness and upfield pass rush ability, but he needs to expand his hand use and counter moves. Basped has been inconsistent to feel pad pressure and react quickly as plays develop. He plays hard and will make plays from the backside but loses leverage too often on the edge. Basped has the size, growth potential and raw athleticism to develop into a solid NFL defender, but he will need time to hone his overall game.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Thomas was a starter for only one season at USC. He has a good combination of size and athleticism for the cornerback position but doesn't have great strength in block protection or in tackling in run support. His length enables him to make plays on the ball, but he is inconsistent to re-route receivers off the line of scrimmage. He is an inconsistent reactor which makes him vulnerable to double moves and losing leverage in coverage as well as in run support. Thomas breaks down well in space but isn't a reliable open-field tackler. He runs well, but his technique (footwork, transition angles, etc.) need to improve for him to be consistently effective in both man and zone coverages. Thomas has the talent and size to develop into an effective NFL cornerback, but he needs to improve in several areas as well as answer durability concerns at the next level.

Wilson was an outstanding junior college player who continued to perform well at South Florida. He is a short, well-built player with average speed for the position. He is a solid reactor with good instincts as plays unfold. Wilson is a tough, hard-nosed defender but will get pushed around too often at the point of attack. He is inconsistent to separate and shed when taking on blockers and might be best as a covered-up linebacker at the next level. He lacks great range and quickness in pursuit and is likely to be exploited in man coverage in the NFL. Wilson was a good college player who has limitations that likely will relegate him to being a core special teams contributor as well as a solid backup in the NFL.

Misi has good size and strength for the linebacker position. He has played both with his hand in the dirt as well as in a stand up position. He is a tough, hard-nosed competitor that will fit best as an outside linebacker in a 3-4 defense. Misi will need some work reading route progressions and will be a liability in pure man coverage. Wright is an aggressive defender that attacks the line of scrimmage to disrupt the run as well as rush the passer effectively. Misi is a good football player that will take some time to transition into the linebacker position, but should contribute on special teams as well as a backup as a rookie.

Coleman is a bit of a tweener (size, speed) prospect for the next level. He doesn’t have great size for the safety position but lacks great pure speed to play out on the perimeter. Coleman is a fierce competitor that is aggressive defending the run as well as the pass. He has good intelligence in understanding schemes but can be inconsistent in his run support angles and can be out of position at times. Coleman is quicker than fast and may fit best in sub packages (nickel back) as he doesn’t have outstanding recovery speed and burst to cover top receivers. Coleman has solid ball skills but needs to play with more consistency in his technique (peddle, pad level, leveraging receivers and ball carriers). He should be a contributor on special teams as a rookie but may take some time to get on the field defensively.

Gregory is a high-character lineman who played tackle in college but projects as a better fit inside, at guard, for the next level. He has marginal initial quickness and is not a natural knee-bender so he struggles to leverage his blocks. He understands blocking angles and makes quick decisions but is simply not quick or agile enough to project as a make-it at the next level. He does not do a great job of bringing his feet with him and often ends up falling off blocks and going to the ground. If intangibles were a determining factor, he would be a starter, but he is not athletic enough to be more than a backup, at best.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Calloway is another in a long line of Iowa linemen that should have a long career in the NFL. He is not the elite athlete that Gallery or Steinbach were but he has enough initial quickness to get out to pick up the edge rusher. He has excellent hand use and will consistently work to finish his blocks off and has a bit of a nasty temperament on the field. Enough of a knee bender to stay under his pads and will bring his feet with him to sustain and redirect blocks with movement. While he has played tackle on both sides as well as some at guard his best position is probably going to be on the right side in the NFL.

Jolly is an experienced lineman who has started 38 consecutive games at left tackle for the Tar Heels. He is a smart player that gets by with limited athleticism and foot quickness thanks to excellent technique and a good understanding of blocking angles and leverage. He is more of a mauler than an explosive hitter and often ends up leaning on opponents rather than jarring them off their base. He has very limited lateral range in pass protection and struggles when trying to react and recover against a good counter move when out on an island.

He doesn't have ideal height but is instinctive and maintains leverage as a deep defender when going after the ball. He is a vocal leader who wins with toughness, instincts, intelligence and technique. He doesn't have great speed but is a good athlete for the position. His foot agility, balance and quickness enable him to be an effective zone-coverage defender. Kyle isn't an explosive hitter and wouldn't be a great in-the-box defender. He is a solid run defender, taking proper angles to the ball and is a reliable tackler. He has good ball skills and is natural to make plays in the passing game. McCarthy has limitations which likely will relegate him to a back-up role at the next level.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Williams is an undersized wide receiver with good punt-return skills and excellent vertical speed but is very raw when it comes to the finer points of running routes, reading coverages and setting defenders up. He gets to top speed quickly but can struggle trying to get off the line against a good press corner. He tends to telegraph his routes and will round off his breaks on hard cuts, but he has the tools to improve with good coaching. He definitely has something that can't be coached, and that is speed, which will cause teams to want to jump on him earlier than his production and skill level would dictate.

He shows good vision and instincts to find a crease as a punt returner. Wilson lacks great top end speed but shows excellent quickness and hips to be effective as a nickel defender. He is a willing run support player but isn’t physical and needs to improve in this phase of the game.

He shows good power to push the pocket as a bull rusher but needs to expand his moves and counters to contribute more as a pass rusher. He needs to be more disciplined and anticipate the snap count as he will jump offsides too often.

Blount nearly threw away his chances of playing in the NFL when he sucker punched an opponent in a season-opening game against Boise State. He was re-instated in November and saw limited action against Oregon State and in Oregon’s bowl game against Ohio State. While his NFL potential is unquestioned, his lack of offseason training habits and inability to control his temper may scare a lot of teams away from him. He can run over tacklers yet has good foot quickness in the hole and runs behind his pads which allows him to break tackles and gain yards after contact.

Brown is a raw, physical talent who has a relatively strong arm and can get the ball out quickly and accurately but will need a lot of work before he is ready for the next level of football. He has played from a spread offense and will need a lot of work to make the transition to a traditional, pro passing attack. He is not real quick to drop in the pocket, and his accuracy can suffer when he tries to throw on the move. He is not quick or fast enough to buy time when flushed out of the pocket and is not apt to scramble for positive yards very often.

Miller is a good-sized running back with adequate running skills. He will show a good burst through the hole but will get ahead of his blockers at times, as well. He tends to run a bit erect and will take some shots that a more compact runner can deflect with shoulder pads. He is not very interested in blocking when asked to stay in and pick up the blitz and is not as punishing a runner as he could be. Needs work on finishing his runs. He has enough wiggle to go with good speed and a good burst through the hole to warrant consideration as a late draft pick.

Washington is a big, strong defensive lineman who had average production for the Crimson Tide during his career. He flashes natural strength and power but can be inconsistent to anchor effectively when not playing with good pad level. He doesn't have great quickness and needs to expand his pass-rush package (moves and counters). He is inconsistent with his effort and can be somewhat of an underachiever for his talent level. He is best between the tackles, because his lack of lateral agility gets exposed in space. Washington has the size and strength to give depth to an NFL defensive line but will need to develop in several areas to contribute consistently.

Tonga is a good all-purpose collegiate fullback who provides running power on the goal line as well as in short-yardage situations and can be an adequate lead blocker. He will need a lot of work on his blocking techniques for the next level, as he tends to duck his head and lunge at blocks too often, which will cause him to whiff on too many blocks. He has nifty feet when making subtle cuts and can make people miss but has very limited lateral range when trying to bounce it to the outside. He does a lot of things pretty well but does not really stand out in any one area. There is enough talent to make you think he has a chance as a backup who can improve to a point but probably never reach the starter level.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Easley is a very raw talent who struggled on the bench for three years before bursting on the scene during his senior year at UConn. He has a rare combination of size and straight-line speed and can make acrobatic catches. The problem is Easley does not appear to trust his hands and will not only drop some catchable passes but tends to let the ball get into his body to trap it rather than reach out to pluck it. He is a bit of a strider and will need a lot of work on getting in and out of his breaks. The nice thing is that he has a good chance to see some action on special teams. He was a core special-teams performer at UConn during his first three years as he tried to earn a scholarship.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Gilyard is an excellent college receiver with top athleticism and above average acceleration and average speed and size for the next level. He has been extremely productive in a passing offense but will need work on making his routes more precise as well as on his release off the line. He is extremely dangerous once he has the ball in his hands and can be a threat to take it all the way with his running skills. He can short arm the ball when he hears footsteps and will need to work on his receiving skills when in traffic.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Newhouse comes from a strong football family but does not show the kind of instincts and mental awareness than you'd expect from someone with that kind of background. As long as the defensive front plays pretty vanilla in terms of stunts and twists, he shows no hesitations or indecision, but he can be late to react and adjust when he sees something for the first time. He shows good initial quickness and speed but struggles when he has to adjust on the move or react to counter moves. He was a quality starter at left tackle for the past three years at TCU but will probably find a better fit inside at guard at the next level.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Green was a two-year starter for the Rebels, as well as being a productive return specialist. He is an undersized perimeter defender with excellent athletic ability. His obvious lack of power hinders his ability to ward off blockers and be a consistent run defender. He is quicker than fast and has excellent hips to turn and stay in receiver's hip pocket. He runs well and but isn't elite to match up with top NFL receivers. He understands angles and route progressions but can be inconsistent in reacting quickly, which gets him out of position at times. Green is a good football player with size limitations who could contribute as a returner and in sub packages as a rookie.
