DRAFT TRACKER 2019

Height, weight, speed prospect who -- like the entire Auburn offense -- had better tape in 2017 than 2018. While Slayton has the athleticism to run a fully-formed route tree, but hasn't yet learned to separate effectively from quality man coverage. His blazing speed is appealing, but teams will want to see more consistency from his hands and as a ball-tracker down the field. With that said, he's more than just a field stretcher and has the traits and talent to become a WR2/3 with more work.

Dean's combination of height, weight and speed will get the conversation started off in the right direction for NFL evaluators, but there is no way around the fact that multiple knee surgeries will be a cause for concern in those same circles. His length and ability to disrupt catch space is a big plus in his favor and he has the athletic ability to play in a variety of coverages. However, he needs more consistent competitiveness and better technique for the next level.

The 2017 Alabama win showed a mobile quarterback with good mechanics and intelligence who played with confidence and was able to convert in key situations. The 2018 tape shows a player who lost both his confidence and poise and began to play a rushed brand of football that seeped into his pre-snap planning and his post-snap accuracy. Stidham went from ascending prospect to developmental quarterback and he needs to find the right set of coaches and system to help rehab his confidence and timing.

Former five-star prospect who flopped at Auburn but showed signs of life this season at Maryland. Cowart posted modest production, but scouts will take note of his size, length and power at the point of attack. He is more likely to be considered an interior defender with some rush potential in odd or even fronts, but he needs to turn the flashes into consistency to become a reliable rotational defender.

Cox possesses a tenacious field demeanor and plays every snap with the same intensity and effort regardless of opponent. He can work as an H-back or fullback but will be unable to dislodge linebackers on downhill iso-blocks and can be much more effective as a lead blocker on outside zone with the pass-catching acumen to handle play-action leakouts. He lacks speed as a core special teamer, but he gets after it when asked to protect his quarterback and that should improve his chances to make a roster.

Russell's upright playing style might frustrate defensive line coaches who recognize the impact his size and power could have in slowing a running game if he could just play with a little better pad level on a consistent basis. Russell is a rotational wide-body with developmental traits to play the nose on odd or even fronts. He could come off the board on Day 3 of the draft.

Slightly undersized inside linebacker whose strength and toughness might be overshadowed by his athletic and speed limitations. Davis loves to swap greetings as a downhill run defender, but when the play flows wide or when he's forced to drop into space his effectiveness drops off sharply. With his limitations, his roster spot might be tied to scheme fit and special teams performance.

Auburn tape paints a picture of Davis as a better runner than receiver as Gus Malzahn's scheme used him as an extension of the running game on the perimeter. However, he does have enough quickness and suddenness to potentially develop into a true slot receiver with more work. There is no one area of his game that clearly stands out so he may need to shine as a return man to warrant an extended look by an NFL team.
