NEEDS ANALYSIS
(NOTE: Needs appear in alphabetical order.) Eric DeCosta has to replace C.J. Mosley at some point, right? There's not much at inside linebacker aside from L.J. Fort. No one can truly replace future Hall of Famer Marshal Yanda, but a young interior O-linemen figures to be thrown into the fire with that unenviable task. Defenses trying to figure out how to stop Lamar Jackson might as well throw their hands up and give up if Baltimore gets Lamar Jackson another weapon at receiver. The need at edge rusher would shoot up the list if the franchise-tagged Matt Judon were dealt, but it should be on the radar here regardless.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
While other Tigers received more attention, Queen has some of the most eye-opening tape of the bunch. He plays fast, physical and with impressive field confidence for a one-year starter. His ability to diagnose and flow are both very rapid, and he operates with excellent body control and balance to gobble up runners as an open-field tackler. His inexperience will show itself in taking on blocks and finding optimal pursuit angles, but that will get cleaned up in time. Queen is next up from LSU's linebacker factory, possessing the same three-down ability to hunt, cover and tackle as those before him. He's an early starter with a sky-high ceiling.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Good football player who bounced back from a sub-par 2018. Proved he could shoulder a heavy load and rise to the occasion against the best his schedule had to offer. He can make a sudden tackler miss and fits as a one-cut runner, but his running style is more battle axe than buzzsaw as a lunch-pail runner with the fortitude and toughness to wear down defenses. Dobbins isn't going to be that creative back with the wiggle and juice to create something out of nothing, but he has the efficiency, production and third-down value teams covet. Dobbins could land a shared-carries role quickly and has the potential to become a solid NFL starter.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Undersized early-entry defensive tackle who lacks NFL mass but gets wins with leverage, strength and quickness. Madubuike played in front of blockers in college but is more likely to be schemed as a moving target whose quickness and athletic ability can benefit him. He's not overly explosive off the snap, so getting on top of blockers with quickness could be the difference between surviving and thriving. Madubuike projects as a rotational one-gapping tackle with upward mobility, but the floor is a little lower, due to size and scheme limitations.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Straight-line speedster with a fireplug build who needs to close the ability gap between when the ball is in his hands and when it's not. Duvernay is a challenging study because he carries long speed but he's not a ball winner. He's a slot receiver with tight hips and below-average routes but has outstanding hands and uses power to add yards after catch. The pieces don't quite fit together, but great hands, YAC and speed are traits teams might look to mold. He's not a classic developmental prospect but could become one if a team has a plan for him and can improve his routes.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Long-legged, loose-hipped linebacker with desired combination of size, physicality and range to help ruin the running game for teams needing linebacker help. His constant downhill mode disrupts blocking schemes and brings impact tackles, but it can be used against him with play-action and misdirection. The instincts are just average but his physical traits even it out on most snaps. He has some coverage limitations but can pressure the pocket as a blitzer and has the athleticism to spy mobile quarterbacks. He's big and tough with the potential to become a good starter inside or as a 4-3 strong-side linebacker.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Big, bruising body mover with serious knock-back power to clear the debris from the gaps in the run game. Phillips has flown under the radar, but his tape is filled with fits of strength at the point of attack. His wide frame includes a wide power zone that prevents his edges from becoming leaky. He fits into power, gap scheme and inside zone as a run blocker, but outside zone is asking too much. He has a lack of functional range in pass sets that might require more tight end help than play-callers would care to give. Interior protection duties should come naturally and he has early starting potential with an above-average ceiling for a power-driven offense.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Four-year starter who will get dinged for some athletic limitations, but possesses the body type, leadership and toughness necessary to play in the league. Bredeson is best-suited firing out in a power-based rushing attacking where his disadvantages in space can be mitigated. There are correctable elements in his game that should forge continued improvement, but there will be some bumpy roads against interior quickness. He should become an average starter.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Durable three-year starter and two-time team captain with leadership and dirt-dog mentality that defensive coaches will love. He's a little undersized but punches above his weight with grown man strength and a desire to play with force. He plays with some tightness in his lower half, which limits his short-area agility and playmaking range. Washington can feel the blocking scheme and attacks it with aggressive hands and upper-body power to fight and counter base blocks. He has below-average size and length and doesn't offer NFL rush value, but he has rotational value as a shade nose or three-technique in a 4-3 scheme.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Average size, quickness and speed, but extraordinary ball skills that allow for viral-caliber catches throughout his game tape. Teams may see the measurables and move him inside, but he lacks slot quickness and route savvy underneath. Once the ball is launched, however, Proche is an alpha with ball tracking, body control and razor-sharp focus, which makes him the favorite in contested-catch battles downfield. Polishing the routes and determining the fit that best activates his ultra-competitive nature and freakish instincts/talent when the ball is in the air could be the difference between becoming a WR3 or a WR5.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Stout but stubby split-safety prospect with excellent instincts and body control, but a concerning lack of length and functional speed. Stone's football IQ is obvious, as he's often triggering down on top of a route before the quarterback is even winding up. He plays with a sheriff's urgency on the backend but struggles to make an impact when he's not playing forward. He lacks a burst to chase or close in man coverage and he has trouble changing direction sharply as a downhill tackler. There are some athletic limitations, but his feel for the game could help him find a home.
