PLAYER ANALYSIS
Thin-boned edge prospect whose narrow base and below-average play strength at the point of attack makes it difficult for him to establish himself as a consistent presence. Gifford's motor and silky spin move are rush traits that should give his draft status some life, but he's in the developmental phase where both his strength and skill level are in need of improvement before he's ready to be a pro.
