DRAFT TRACKER 2021

Cornerback prospect with inside/outside potential featuring good size and adequate speed. The former four-star prospect possesses quality athletic ability with good transition quickness and foot agility. He has press potential with the ability to open and connect with routes. However, he does have issues losing patience and opening his hips too soon against release and route fakes. He's a willing tackler and proved to be much more consistent in that area in 2020. Robinson possesses the size and traits to garner attention as a Day 2 (Rounds 2-3) cornerback, but teams will have to decide whether he has the speed to play outside or if he's a better fit for nickel duties.

Grant offers versatility to play deep or down safety and has decent man-cover ability against matchup tight ends. He's at his best as a high safety, where he has an overview of the field. He can key quarterbacks and use his ballhawking tendencies to force turnovers. His play as a down safety was marked with bouts of coverage confusion from bunch sets and occasional busts. He's a willing, physical tackler but just average when asked to do it in the open field as a last line of defense. Grant's size and length were on full display at the Senior Bowl, where he put together a strong week. He followed that up with a good pro day workout. He has been a fast riser up the boards and should go on Day 2.

Under-the-radar wideout with elite size and dangerous speed. Harris has inside/outside experience and offers the potential to threaten coverage as a matchup talent. Cornerbacks tend to fall asleep on his long, smooth strides and he gets by them before they know it. While his size and speed will be alluring, his consistency as a pass catcher could be a concern. Harris hasn't developed a feel for utilizing body positioning to help him win more contested catches and his ability to correct that issue could be the difference between becoming a productive pro or just an explosive athlete.

Dangerous three-level talent with speed and short-area athleticism to play inside or outside as a pro. Nixon had impressive flashes over his first two seasons at UCF before playing in just four games this past year due to a shoulder injury. His play strength and hands are both in need of work in order for him to be considered a trustworthy option for play callers and quarterbacks. He has the juice to win foot races deep and displays enough route-running potential to uncover against pro coverage on the first and second levels. Nixon offers intriguing value as a potential Day 3 selection with WR3 talent.

Williams' 2020 production is eye-catching, averaging close to 130 yards per game and finishing fourth in the FBS in yards after contact, according to Pro Football Focus. He's not sudden, but he's also not a plodding mover in space. He uses his hands and feet to work free of press and has a feel for finding the soft spots of the zone. Williams uses his size to create some separation at the top of the route but doesn't have the burst out of his break to keep the window open for long. He's more of a big slot than an outside threat and teams might be discouraged by his body-catching and inability to consistently secure the throw.

Outside cornerback who will struggle to stay connected to routes against speed or quality route runners. He does a nice job of crowding underneath routes and has the length and ball instincts to make receivers really work for it on contested catches. Gowan needs to get stronger, but has good size and length to work with. His area of effectiveness will be limited at the next level. He might need to be paired with defenses utilizing more Cover 2 or Cover 3 schemes.

Anderson is a good football player, offering versatility, athleticism and playmaking characteristics, but his size is a big obstacle. He's not big enough to be counted on as a pure backup running back, which means he will need to make it as a gadget player with wide receiver potential who can return punts. He has unreliable hands and focus when working into traffic as a pass catcher but does have the smooth hips and separation acceleration to compete at the receiver position if teams ask him to make that switch.

McCrae's thin, linear frame will be tough to overcome in the eyes of NFL evaluators. However, he has tape showing his talent as a slasher with plenty of heart. He sees run-lane development faster than many RBs in this draft and is smooth processing from his eyes to his feet. He can make sudden lateral slides to either avoid tacklers or switch up his running lane. Despite his size, he has an impressive winning percentage turning red zone carries into touchdowns. He won't jet through the line of scrimmage with a big burst and doesn't have the natural strength to break tackles, though. He's a talented runner, but the lack of size and below-average third-down value will make it challenging for him to earn a roster spot.
