DRAFT TRACKER 2021

Long-levered stand-up rusher whose production over the last two seasons will surely catch a team's eye. Anchor strength and contact balance are the two immediate stumbling blocks Koonce faces in terms of his NFL future, but some of those concerns might be alleviated with more work in an NFL weight program. Koonce has a noticeable second gear to the football, but needs to improve as a tackle finisher. His approach as an edge rusher is basic and predictable, but he plays with instinctive feet and tempo changes, which could be crafted into a more dangerous attack in time. The step up in competition will be a challenge, but he has a future in the NFL as a 3-4 outside linebacker.

Good luck knocking this bowling ball of balance and power off his feet with a single blow. If you love production and competitiveness, Patterson is your guy. He might be short but he's plenty stout and creates a chunk of his production after contact. Besides breaking tackles, he offers decent speed to the edge and downhill elusiveness to find his own yardage when necessary. He sees the field well but can be a little hesitant in buying into certain running lanes and his choppy running style delays his burst through the line of scrimmage. He lacks pass-catching production but his courage and technique in protection was eye-opening. Some of the gargantuan production came against weaker defenses, but "hard to tackle" is a translatable trade and could make him a three-down backup.

Three-year starter at tackle who will likely make the move inside to guard as a pro. Awosika was one of the pivotal offensive linemen for a rushing unit that pounded opponents throughout the season. He has a guard's frame and decent leg drive that can be improved upon with a wider base and better hand placement through contact. He's not much of a knee-bender, which will limit his range as a move blocker and create some consistency issues against athletic pass rushers who might be able to work their way around him quicker than his quarterback will be comfortable with. Improving body control and learning to widen out will be the keys for him making it as a backup guard in a power-based run scheme.

Jump-ball specialist with the tracking and ball skills to bring in the catch in one-on-one battles in space. Nunn has good size and acceleration, which he uses effectively when working down the field. He has outstanding instincts when it comes to altering tempo to help keep his body between the defender and the football. However, as a route runner, he misses the mark. He doesn't work with much leverage or attention to detail, which allows cornerbacks to read him and jump on top of his breaks. That said, Nunn has enough interesting tape to get a look as a priority free agent.
