DRAFT TRACKER 2021

One-year starter with underwhelming size but overwhelming production. Gainwell is a challenging study as a slasher with average burst and speed but excellent change-of-direction talent. His propensity for taking on monster contact as an inside runner should be a concern based on his frame. He does an excellent job of reading blockers/defenders and makes buttery smooth cuts to change his rush track while keeping his feet ready if another quick cut is needed. His willingness in pass protection and talent out of the backfield should help him find a home as a backup running back with third-down value.

Outside receiver with a long, linear frame who is the author of impressive production during his time at Memphis. He's a long strider who lacks suddenness and play strength, so getting off of an NFL press may require additional work and maybe even scheme help. He requires a passing attack that keeps him on the move, where his athleticism and stride length can work in his favor. The ball skills are there on the deep throws but his hands and focus on the first two levels are too hit-and-miss at this point. Coxie's potential might be limited to a WR4/WR5 roster spot, at best.

Patterson's 2019 season might have been a better representation of who he is as a field goal kicker, but his 2020 results might be more heavily weighed by teams. Wind seemed to impact him in a couple of games, which should be taken into account, and he does strike the ball fairly consistently. He has enough leg for longer field goals, but it's not a big leg by NFL standards. He's likely to get a shot to prove himself as a priority free agent.

Three-year starter but spent six seasons in college football programs between Arizona State and Memphis. White has been a productive quarterback for an explosive Memphis attack, racking up 90 touchdown passes and 8.7 yards per attempt over the last three seasons. He's highly intelligent, but he lacks the arm strength and ball placement necessary to beat a pro secondary.

Williams has had better seasons than he did in 2020. Regardless, he doesn't have a booming leg and doesn't kick with enough hang time. He's a long shot to make a team.
