PLAYER ANALYSIS
Three-year starter at defensive end with burly frame, heavy hands and an ability to take on physical rigors of the NFL. His rush attack is more technical and explosive, using active hands, spin counters and a thoughtful approach. His lack of suddenness and edge speed could get him pegged as an early-down end while moving inside to become an interior rusher on passing downs. He needs to become comfortable handling the heavy lifting as a run defender as he's much more likely to be a worker bee than playmaker in that regard. He's strong and plays heavy at the point of attack with leverage to sit down and battle for his space of turf. He's unlikely to produce headline-making production, but should be a good pro.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Big, strong target lacking explosiveness to uncover against tight man coverage, but a willing combatant when it's time to make a contested catch. Surratt opted out of the 2020 season but put together nice production as a sophomore in 2019. He lacks the foot quickness needed to elude press corners and will likely have coverage squatting on his routes underneath due to his lack of speed. He has experience in the slot, which might be where NFL teams look at him thanks to his ball skills and ability to post up smaller defenders to create a window for quarterbacks. His soft hands and feel for the catch phase are appealing, but inconsistencies in uncovering could make him a WR3/WR4 at best.
