DRAFT TRACKER 2021

Versatile safety prospect with the size, play strength and coverage ability to be deployed in a variety of positions. He's a plus athlete with above-average length and a playmaker's mindset. He has the foot quickness and anticipation to handle man coverage and contest catches underneath or handle split safety duties, where his awareness and athleticism benefit him. Tape shows an instinctive player who can be a little inconsistent in responding to what he sees. He's tough and physical enough to cover tight ends and play near the line of scrimmage in run support. His angles to the football and inconsistencies as an open-field tackler are a little concerning, but he should be an early backup with the upside to develop into a starter.

He'll be immediately lumped into the category of extremely tall tackles who struggle with anchor and reactive quickness due to the high center of gravity. There is no question Himmelman is way behind with his functional power and ability to utilize his length at an optimal level. He's a quality athlete who should be able to handle most move-blocking duties, and his understanding of how to create some leverage with his hand strike is a big help. He'll be a developmental prospect until he gains functional strength, but he may be a late-round player who needs practice-squad time for that to happen.
