DRAFT TRACKER 2022

Pickett has five years of game experience and four years of starting experience for Pitt. He's a fairly toolsy pocket passer with good mobility. He operated in a passing scheme featuring vertical concepts that created big-play opportunities but left food on the plate when he failed to play chess against the back-end of the coverage. Pickett works with average anticipation but drives the ball with good velocity, which should help him shine in pre-draft passing drills. Pickett's touch and placement need work, but his accuracy stats were damaged by an inordinate amount of drops throughout his career. The top indicator for future success or failure will likely rest in a team's ability to build Pickett's trust, poise and discipline from the pocket. He can make all the throws, but he'll only be able to execute against disguised fronts and NFL pressure if he's willing to hang in and win with his eyes first. He carries a boom/bust label, but the 2021 tape and productivity showed off his potential to become a good starter in time.

Mathis plays with good anticipation and ball skills but lacks the top-end speed and coverage tools needed to play pure press-man coverage. While he's played Cover 3 with some modest success in college, he lacks the traits and poise to do so in the pros. He offers short and intermediate zone-cover talent as a cornerback or dime safety on the next level. His ability to help support the run from the slot could factor in his favor.

Krull is more of a move tight end in a Y tight end's body. It seems he doesn't love the physicality needed at the point of attack but does have the tools to get better. He tends to be a grass-stomping step-counter underneath but flashes his athletic gifts when he's allowed to open up his gait and play in space. Krull lacks game experience and his hands are a little spotty, but he's a competitive, passionate player with NFL traits and could benefit from a team willing to invest time and coaching into his development.

A long snapper with five years of experience, Adomitis has shown improved accuracy and overall consistency with every season. He has NFL size and gets the ball back on punts and kicks with quality accuracy, but the snap speed is average by NFL standards. He's shown a willingness and ability to get down the field in coverage. He should find an NFL camp as a late draft pick or priority free agent.

Possession receiver with average speed and physical traits. Mack is a one-speed route-runner who will struggle to separate on in- and out-breaking routes but could find small openings on comebacks and stops. He will see a heavy percentage of contested catches as a pro, but his body-catching tendencies are ill-suited to win those matchups.
