DRAFT TRACKER 2020

Dallas was a high school quarterback who came into Miami as a receiver and converted to running back during the 2017 season. The production is modest and the instincts are a work in progress, but there are flashes of run-lane feel and downhill smoothness that could be a sign of future development. He has size, speed and a surprising amount of pop as a finisher. His contact balance makes him hard to bring down through contact, but he needs to improve his open-field wiggle. He lacks third-down readiness, but his special teams talent should make up for that. The traits and toughness make him an intriguing upside prospect on Day 3.

Four-year starter and team leader with a physical demeanor and impressive level of production. Quarterman is durable and dependable in the middle of the defense, but he lacks NFL range and has below-average short-area agility and quickness as open-field tackler. He's a linear, downhill thumper, but struggles to stay ahead of climbing blocks when runs flow wide. His size and toughness give him a shot as a backup inside linebacker.

There are two versions of Lawrence Cager. The Miami Hurricane version played slower and had issues with focus drops. The Georgia Bulldog version played faster and with better fluidity of movement. In fact, he played with elite focus and contested catch talent. He is a reliable possession receiver with the size and toughness to work the middle of the field, but proved he could make impressive catches on all three levels. Both versions had issues with injury, so his medicals and 40-yard-dash time will play a substantial role in deciding whether or not he gets drafted, but his 2019 tape was definitely good enough.

Traits-based edge defender capable of playing 4-3 end or 3-4 rush linebacker. Garvin's strong 2018 was followed up with inconsistent effort and an inability to stamp his presence on games with much consistency. He gains depth upfield quickly and is fairly natural at defeating the punch and flipping the corner. Pressures are nice, but sack-makers get paid and that won't happen unless he cranks up the effort and plays to his traits and potential. Garvin has Day 2 talent, but may not go until Day 3. However, there might be gold to mine if a coach can get it out of him.

Four-year starter with annual stat sheets that looked remarkably similar in all four years. Ironically, some scouts argue that Pinckney hasn't shown enough growth and improvement beyond his standout freshman season. He's physical and plays with decent instincts, but he's an average athlete and doesn't play with enough control or balance from snap to snap. He's been solid at Miami, but his ceiling might be as a backup linebacker and special-teams contributor as a pro.

Highly explosive playmaker with field-stretching speed and short-area quickness to tempt teams looking for viable three-level solutions from the slot. Thomas' impressive athleticism and talent were wasted by sub-par quarterbacking and self-sabotage. On tape, he creates chunk plays as a vertical threat, on crossing routes and with wide receiver screens and jet sweeps. He relies on athletic gifts over route acumen, but that can be corrected. His draft profile is bolstered by his potential as a return man, but he's likely to have his name scratched from some draft boards due to character concerns, despite the talent.

Field-fast, slot cornerback whose ball production doesn't always match with his athletic ability. Bandy plays with inconsistent footwork and a level of nonchalance in space, allowing for preventable separation. His recovery burst can cover up for mid-rep mistakes, but he will need to correct his fundamentals to handle slot coverage in the pros. He's more effective in zone but still needs to trust his eyes a bit more. The run support is way too ragged and teams will have to determine if it's toughness or technique causing it. He has a chance to become a backup slot with more work.

Osborn played mostly from the slot at Buffalo and mostly outside at Miami, but Buffalo likely had it right. His size, quickness and speed fail to stand out and he's not fully equipped to get away from tight man on the pro level. From the slot, his instincts in space and overall toughness could serve him well, but are still garden variety at best. However, Osborn has been a consistently productive punt returner for three seasons and is able to cover kicks and punts if asked. The special teams work gives him a shot if he can be functional as a backup receiver.

Virginia Tech grad transfer who is short on physical traits, play strength and explosiveness, but has enough athletic ability to create pocket traffic as a rusher at both schools. He'll be pegged as a standup outside linebacker, but will need to improve his fundamentals and aggressiveness in order to handle edge-setting duties. While he lacks threatening edge speed, he might have a shot at finding a practice squad as a developmental edge rusher.
