DRAFT TRACKER 2023

Kirkland is likely to ply his trade as a guard, but he might be able to step in at tackle in a pinch. His barrel-chested, high-cut frame looks out of place at guard. He is unable to generate the leverage or power needed as a downhill blocker but does a decent job on positional blocks on the move. In protection, bull rushers can get under him and drive him into the pocket, but he’s quick with his hands and can get on top of rushers quickly when he needs to. His pass protection background could bolster his chances as a Day 3 pick and future backup.

Guard-only prospect with NFL-caliber measurables but enough inconsistencies to cause concern. Bainivalu’s power is good enough and he’s fairly adept at using his length, but athletic limitations make it difficult for him to recover and block if it isn’t right in front of him. He’s assignment-oriented and plays with adequate technique but could be a long-shot to make a roster.

Perryman looked overwhelmed in coverage after making the jump in competition to the Pac-12 last season. He has an NFL frame, but he lacks the fluidity and overall coverage instincts needed to stay connected to pro route runners. His physicality could create an opportunity for a safety transition, but he might not be able to make it as an NFL cornerback.
