Has the snap speed and outstanding accuracy to get a shot in the league. While it isn't easy to break into the NFL long-snappers club, he also has decent size with room to get bigger. Overbaugh's willingness to tackle helps.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Thuney is a three-year starter who has shown overall improvement in all aspects of his game and the position diversity that offensive line coaches love and need. Unfortunately, his lack of foot quickness and arm length make him an unlikely NFL tackle and his core strength and frame deficiencies will make a move to guard very difficult. Ultimately, center might be his only NFL shot.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Stave has size, a strong arm, loads of experience and plays in a run-first offense, yet he's produced 19 touchdowns and 22 interceptions over the last two seasons. For all the physical boxes he checks off, issues with accuracy and decision-making have been too present in his game and fans at Wisconsin let him know about it. Stave throws as pretty a pass as any quarterback in this draft, but very few quarterbacks have been able to overcome his weaknesses and become reliable NFL quarterbacks.

Cheek is built like a tackle, but played guard at Texas A&M thanks in large part to the outstanding tackle talent that has come through the program. Cheek's lack of play strength could limit his draft prospects as a guard, but his stock could be helped out quite a bit if teams work him out as a tackle and like what they see.

Crawley definitely had some flash moments at the Shrine Game practices, but teams value production and there is no getting around his astounding number of touchdowns allowed and pass interference penalties. If Crawley runs well, teams may view him as a developmental prospect in need of technique work, but his inconsistency in coverage and lack of plays on the ball may be a sign of confidence issues and a lack of instincts.

Pass protection from 2015 was problematic at right tackle, but his guard tape from 2014 was more promising and showed a better fit for his strengths. Maiava’s issue with balance and body control could make him an inconsistent blocker in both the run and pass, but he will step up and whip his man from time to time. There is enough to like that gives him a shot at making a run in camp and potentially finding a practice squad.

Three-year starter and part of a senior class that won 40 games while at Boise State. Henry lacks the length and size that teams want from draftable center prospects, but he plays with some pop and he works his butt off to stay on his blocks by any means necessary. The will and play demeanor are there to get him into a camp, but other traits may prevent him from hearing his name called in April.

Anderson will struggle to carry enough weight to become a full-time, move tight end and his blocking simply isn't trustworthy. However, the tape shows enough potential as a matchup tight end to monitor his combine and pro day. While I consider Anderson to be a long shot to make a roster, NFL scouts believe he has a legitimate shot.

He might be written off as too small or a "system quarterback", but he has shown tremendous growth as a passer and leader while building an impressive resume over the last two seasons. Boykin throws with some anticipation and has the arm talent and mobility to warrant a late-round pick even if he will need extended work learning to read defenses. There is a chance that his arrest at the end of the year could prevent him from being drafted.

Aggressive three-year starter at guard for the Sun Devils who is more worker bee than standout on the college level. He has just enough strength and just enough functional movement skills to have a shot in the NFL, but he may always fall prey to early length and late strength from players across from him. Teofilo might be limited to a backup role in the pros, but he could help his cause by proving he can snap the ball and play some center as well.

If he were taller and a stronger tackler, I could easily see a transition to safety considering his instincts and ability to read quarterbacks and route progressions. While a team could try him there, my guess is that he will have to make it as a slot corner. His speed and quickness numbers at his workout will be extremely important for him.

Rotational defensive end best suited to play the run rather than rush the passer. Simmons has the size and potentially strength to play end in a 3-4, but his arm length is less than what defensive coordinators look for at that position. Simmons probably doesn’t have the base or thickness to play inside on a full-time basis as a pro, so power end in a 4-3 or 3-4 five technique is his best shot.
