DRAFT TRACKER 2022

Free safety with average size and speed, good athleticism and only one season as a full-time starter at Illinois. Joseph worked for all five of his interceptions in 2021, using both his length and range over the top. He lacks prototypical instincts as a single-high safety but that might be due to a lack of experience. He's fluid in space but needs to play with better anticipation. Joseph is missing the demeanor and tackle strength for the box and is likely to be viewed as less versatile than some other safeties in the class, but he has potential in single-high and split-safety alignments.

Offensive line prospect who checks multiple boxes in both the traits and intangibles categories. Evaluators are sure to love Lowe's personal character as well as his measurables. He's big, strong and long but needs to play with better hand accuracy and technique to fully unlock those traits. Bend and athleticism are both strengths for Lowe, who is a scheme-independent talent. He's allowed too many pressures and sacks during his career but has the tools for rapid improvement with a few coaching fixes. Lowe is worthy of middle-round consideration as a swing tackle with guard potential.

Highly productive inside/outside linebacker with a nose for the football but a penchant for injury. The three-year team captain lacks desired size and explosiveness, but has succeeded with rapid diagnosis and scrap agility to find the football. His instincts help him play faster than his stopwatch speed, but he also gets himself in trouble by prematurely overflowing the action and losing his optimal positioning. Hansen has a talent for making impact plays and can be hard to knock off of his feet, but his tackle-finishing and coverage are very average by NFL standards. He has the talent to become a long-term backup, but his injury history will be an obvious concern.

Defensive back with the size and athletic testing that could have teams deciding between casting him as a safety or cornerback. He has good recovery speed, but the body control and route anticipation create issues with giving away open throwing windows on the second and third levels. He's quick to respond when reading the run but will miss more tackles than he should. Adams has the traits and versatility to compete for a practice squad role early on.

Hayes lacks the hang-time and consistent drive power teams will be looking for but he's an absolute dart-thrower as a coffin-corner punter. He has outstanding control to park opponents near their own end zone but might not be well-rounded enough to find an NFL home.

A five-year starter, Kramer is a zone-scheme center who moves fairly well but lacks the body control and core strength to win battles against NFL interior linemen.
