PLAYER
DRAFTED BY
San Francisco 49ers
Round 3 • Pick 2
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Possesses a rare combination of size and speed and saw his ball production take a substantial leap this season. Witherspoon played just one season of high school football so his technique and route awareness should continue to improve. Witherspoon's length and his ability to mirror and match in space should launch him into early playing time, but his unwillingness to tackle and hit will be a complete turn-off for some teams.

Round 2 • Pick 28
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Sticky man-cover corner who possesses the reactive athleticism and foot quickness to maintain coverage responsibilities around the field. Awuzie is not a burner, but his technique and instincts should provide what he needs to compete downfield. His inconsistencies as a tackler, however, could turn off some teams. He can play outside or in the slot and has traits and talent to compete for early playing time.

Round 4 • Pick 4
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Thompson in an instinctive cover safety with strong ball skills and a history of production during his time at Colorado. Lacks physicality to operate around the box, but his football intelligence and playmaking skills will get him drafted and could give him a shot at eventually starting.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Does one thing and one thing only -- eat up space. Doesn't have enough reactive quickness or even functional movement to find himself in many plays that aren't right at him, but his size and anchor gives him a shot with a team who values pure girth for early downs.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Tackle numbers will catch the eye, but the tape isn't as kind. Has some good moments, but he lacks desired play strength, instincts and play speed for the position. If he is to make it in the NFL, he will have to play with a much more consistent motor to overcome some of his physical shortcomings.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Liufau's toughness, leadership and competitive spirit is exactly what teams want and it happens to come in an NFL-ready frame. Unfortunately, his lack of timing and anticipation as a passer is one of the reasons his touchdown numbers are so low per attempt. While he showed an ability to run Colorado's offense with relative effectiveness, his game doesn't appear to translate to the NFL level.
