 | HIS UNUSUAL SIZE AT 6’4" WILL BE TEMPTING FOR MANY, BUT I THINK THAT HIS FLAWS CAN CAUSE HIM TO FALL THIS LOW. HE IS A VERY GOOD PRESS COVER CORNER THAT MAKES UP HIS “LACK OF SPEED” (4.64 40 TIME) WITH HIS AGGRESSION AND BALL SKILLS, HIS LARGE ARMS AND FRAME COULD BE VERY USEFUL AT THE BEGINNING OF HIS CAREER, WHILE HE STILL LEARNS HOW TO ADJUST AND PLAY MORE ZONE COVERAGE. REMEMBER, RICHARD SHERMAN WAS LABELED AS BIG BUT SLOW AND DROPPED UNTIL THE 5TH ROUND, HE WAS AN INCH SHORTER THAN WILLIAMS, AND WE KNOW THE OUTCOME OF HIS CAREER, LET THEM SLEEP, LET US WIN |
third round
#99 CONNOR MCGOVERN OG PENN STATE
 | AGAIN, A TWO POSITION STARTER IN COLLEGE (GUARD/CENTER), HE HAS ADEQUATE SIZE FOR THE NFL AND IS A MAULER IN THE RUN GAME, BUT HAS MANY FLAWS THAT CAN BE ADDRESSED, ESPECIALLY COACHED BY A COAH SUCH AS AARON KROMER. I BELEIVE THE RAMS CAN DRAFT HIM, AND IF THEY LIKE EITHER NOTEBOOM OR ALLEN BETTER, THEY CAN GROOM HIM OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF YEARS TO BE A NFL STARTING CALIBER INTERIOR OFFENSIVE LINEMAN. |
FOURTH ROUND
#133 DAVID MONTGOMERY RB IOWA STATE
 | I’M TAKING A FLYER HERE, AS I CURRENTLY THINK HE IS THE BEST, MOST COMPLETE RUNNING BACK IN THE DRAFT, BUT I’VE NOT SEEN HIM RANKED IN THE TOP 5 OF HIS POSITION ON MANY BOARDS. IF HE IS HERE AT THIS POINT, I WOULDN’T THINK TWICE IN PULLING THE PLUG. HE IS A TRUE THREE DOWN BACK, AS HE CAN RUN, MONTGOMERY CAN CATCH AND HE CAN BLOCK, BUT HIS LACK OF EXPLOSION IN THE OPEN FIELD CAN LURE SOME TEAMS AWAY FROM HIM. |
FIFTH ROUND
#169 DAYLON MACK DT TEXAS A&M
 | THERE ARE FEW TRUE NOSE TACKLES THAT I’VE SEEN THAT HAS THE FIRST STEP THAT MACK HAV., DON’T READ MUCH INTO HIS EARLY CAREER STATS; HE WAS PLAYING IN A SYSTEM THAT DIDN’T SUIT HIS GAME. HOWEVER, IN THE FINAL SEASON OF HIS COLLEGIATE CAREER, HE EXPLODED AND SHOWED THE WORLD THE BEAST HE CAN TRULY BECOME. HE IS A TRUE RUN STOPPER THAT NEEDS TO FINESSE HIS PASS RUSHING MOVES. PAIR HIM UP WITH AARON DONALD AND THEY WILL BE A NIGHTMARE DUO EVEN FOR THE BEST CENTER-GUARD DUOS IN THE LEAGUE; SPEED WOULD BE UNSTOPPABLE. |
SIXTH ROUND
203.- BEN BURR-KIRVEN LB WASHINGTON
 | I KNOW YOU WILL BASH ME FOR WHAT I’M ABOUT TO SAY, BUT KIRVEN IS THE BEST OFF BALL LB IN THIS CLASS. HIS LACK OF SIZE WILL MAKE HIM FALL DEEP. BUT HE REALLY MAKES UP HIS LACK OF SIZE WITH HIS VISION AND SPEED, THERE IS A REASON HE WAS THE NATIONS LEADING TACKLER, PLUS, HE PLAYED WITH COREY LITTLETON IN 2016, THE CHEMISTRY SURE WOULD HELP. BEST OFF-BALL LB IN THE CLASS GUYS |
SEVENTH ROUND
251.- LUKAS DENIS S BOSTON COLLEGE
 | TALK ABOUT CHEMISTRY, HIS FORMER TEAMMATE COULD BE HIS NEW ONE (JOHN JOHNSON III). A FORMER CORNER THAT TRANSITIONED WELL WITH BC’S COACHING STAFF MOVED HIM TO CORNER WITH HIS SMOOTHNESS AND ATHLETIC ABILITY. HE CAN BE A SINGLE HIGH SAFETY WHILE JOHNSON CRAWLS INTO THE BOX, AND HE CAN HOLD THAT FS POSITION IN A COUPLE OF GROOMING YEARS WITH PEACE. AS WE WILL BE FINE WITH NEW ARRIVAL ERIC WEDDLE, WHO'S BEEN TOUTED AS AN EXCELLENT TEAMMATE AND MENTOR, PERFECT FIT? HECK YEAH! |

#99 Jachai polite vs Florida St (2018)
Strengths: Very athletic with great size, and speed that allows him to make many tackles from behind. Has an explosive get, blowing past the tackle or tight end. A stockpile of moves, with counters, devastating spin move, or just extreme power as a bull rusher. Unique ability to get to the quarterback and great instincts to strip the ball wall making the sack. Has an elite bend while dropping hips and get around the corner with relative ease. Has the ability to contain the outside well against reverses, scrambling quarterbacks, deception plays.
Weaknesses:
Will struggle to disengage from blockers and get pushed around by massive blockers. Only played the EDGE for two years, will need more experience at the next level. Tend to tackles very high at times and not able to handle bigger pulling linemen.
Draft Grade: 5.46
Draft Projection: 4th Round
Does He Fit?: Yes, but will need to probably add 20 pounds of build to his body, as the Rams continue to look for playmaking EDGE Rushers. Polite has an upside but could be a one year project.
NFL Comparison: Dee Ford

#8 Darrell Henderson vs ucf (2018 aac championship)
Strengths: A very elusive runner that is hard to tackle with a tremendous cutback or jump cut. Notably, slippery not allowing defenders to get direct hits on him by bouncing outside or dipping inside. Great balance even after a hit, and able to spin off the tackler for additional yards after contact. Has the ability to expedite his speed even after a stop or cut. Very fast, he can get into the second level quickly and hit the home run past the secondary. Moral strength who can below pad level and be the hitter aside from getting hit.
Has a grand vision to pick up necessary short yardage when nothing is available. Good hands, very dangerous in coming out of the backfield and productive with screens. Tremendous mix match on one on one coverage with linebacker or safety.
Weaknesses: Protecting the ball, has some fumble issues, especially as a receiver. Tends to run with the ball not protected, need to switch to, and keep the ball outside of the tackler's view. Too much speed can be an issue as a runner need to more patient when running inside the guards. Henderson will need to get better as a pass protector at the next level.
Draft Grade: 5.51
Draft Projection: 2nd-3rd Round
Does He Fit?: Yes, with all the news regarding Todd Gurley's arthritic knee, and the resigning of Malcolm Brown, Henderson can be a tremendous spark for the offense as well as a contingency plan. Not to take anything away from Brown, but Henderson tremendously has more of an upside than Brown. Henderson is a reminder of a back (Kareem Hunt) that hurt the New England Patriots week one of the 2017 NFL season openers. Excellent third-down back to help Gurley to get some rest or mix match against the defense.

#53 t.J. Edwards vs. Michigan (2017)
Strengths: Very productive college career in one of the country's top conferences. Technically sound tackler. Pretty good in zone coverage, and had ten career interceptions. Reads quarterbacks well and uses that ability to break up passes and make plays. Lots of experience in the big game again top opponents. As mentioned in his bio above, Edwards is a football player, a blue-collar guy who will stick his nose in there and make plays. His production in college far exceeds what we would expect from his combine numbers. A durable player who seems always to be ready to play and will not make stupid mistakes
Weaknesses: Edwards is neither especially big nor exceptionally fast, and he is not a "sideline to sideline" playmaker. While he is fine in zone coverage, he is not a guy we want to match up against an opponent in man coverage very often; he lacks the speed and athleticism for that. Might not be a "plug and play" guy who can start immediately.
Draft Grade: 5.47
Draft Projection: 4th-6th round
Does He Fit?: Yes, although he might have to make his mark on special teams at first. Edwards is a guy we can probably grab in the lower rounds and gradually work into the linebacker rotation. However, Corey Littleton took that path with the Rams as an undrafted free agent, and he has worked out pretty well

Strengths: Has the ability to be a pass rusher but dominate the run in backfield. As a pass rusher, has great inside gap moves to the quarterback. Ability to get underneath pass blocker to get around to the QB. Arsenal of moves to set up blocker and counter back inside. Great field presence and ability to bat down passes. Can provide the power of a bull rusher. Has to the ability to drop in coverage and be effective.
Weaknesses: Need to get stronger as a massive blocker will blow him away. Need to wrap up more effectively as a tackler oppose to go for kill shots. Will need to create better pass rushing moves at the next level. Hips not very fluid potentially could benefit with some type of off fields strength and pilotis courses.

A two-year starter in high school, he made his way to South Dakota to play college ball at the University of Sioux Falls. In 2017 he allowed just one sack while manning the all-important left tackle positions for the Cougars and was named second-team all-Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference. He was even better as a senior in 2018, when he was named to the first Team All-Division II All America Team and finished third in the voting for the Gene Upshaw Award for the top lineman in Division II. Anytime a college lineman is mentioned in the same sentence as legendary Raiders lineman Gene Upshaw, that is a very good thing.

#78 Trey Pipkins highlights
Strengths: Athletic, long-limbed player who could bulk up without sacrificing much athleticism. Smart player who will do his job and not create problems in the locker room or off the field. High-motor guy who plays hard on every play until the whistle blows. Decent lateral quickness. Strong hands which he uses to sustain blocks. Good quickness gets into his set for pass blocking quickly.
Weaknesses: Didn't face top opponents in college, and some scouts feel he was able to cruise on size and athleticism rather than technique. Didn't play in a pro-style passing offense or against sophisticated NFL defenses. Will a guy who played college ball in Division Two be overwhelmed by the bright lights of the NFL? Probably more of a "project" than a "plug and play" guy
Draft Grade: 5.51
Draft Projection: 4th-5th Round
Does He Fit?: If the Rams are willing to exercise some patience with his development, sure. The upside to a talented player from a small school--and Pipkins is talented--is that he can be trained in the system and developed the way the coaching staff wants him to be. This isn't a star player from a "football factory" school and that isn't all bad

Manu Harari
Player Bio: Coming as a five-star recruit from Montgomery Carver High School, Wilson was recruited by several SEC schools, ultimately choosing the Crimson Tide to play for, where he was a key player for Alabama in helping them reach three of their four straight National Championship game appearances. Mack started off his college career red hot, playing in al 15 games on special teams, defense and briefly as a running back. As a Freshman on a defense that already consisted of current NFL Players today, such as Reuben Foster, Minkah Fitzpatrick, Marlon Humphrey, and Eddie Jackson, garnered eight totals tackles (five solo), one fumble recovery and one catch for a one-yard touchdown. By his sophomore season, Wilson had a bigger role, starting two of 12 games and missing two games because of a foot injury; despite not being a current starter, Mack hacked his way into being a contributor for the team, recording 40 total tackles (21 solos), two passes defended, and leading the team in interceptions with four, and adding a touchdown. He played arguably his best game of the season when it counted the most, vs Georgia in the National Championship Game, recording 12 tackles (seven solos) and two of his season total 2 1/2 tackles for loss in the game. Wilson carved himself a role on the team for what it was going to be his last college season by himself, having career high with 71 tackles ( five for loss), one sack, seven passes defended, while adding two interceptions to his already great season, earning him a spot as all 2nd team All-SEC.

#66 beau benzschawel vs. Iowa (2018)
Strengths: Ability to pull outside and with trap-blocking designs, that allows to display athleticism in the run game. Very durable and continues that same athleticism throughout the game. impressive ability to deceive the defender on screenplays allowing them with a clear path to the quarterback before releasing and setting up blocks down the field. Great control of his body and the ability to shed off pass rushers. Plays to the whistle and from great body control, seldom are not on the ground. Has a great vision on the field, in pass protection, constantly scanning the space around the pocket.
Weaknesses: At the next level strength will oppose an issue, necessary to bulk up and get stronger. If not, will only be an average lineman who can't clear out on short yardage. Need to work on setting anchor as is susceptible to spin moves. Tends to stay too tall in pass protection as defenders can dip underneath and decrease his power. Need to work on position feet against the defenders to avoid that issue. Need to gets out faster to the defenders as stunts and hard chops will beat him to the pocket.
Draft Grade: 5.53
Draft Projection: 3rd - 5th Round
Does He Fit?: Yes, when the Rams drafted Rob Havenstein, perhaps had the same issues that Benzschawel posses coming into the draft. However, Havenstein under the tutelage of line coach Aaron Kromer, has turned into one of the higher echelon of offensive tackles today. The unbelievably conditioning and strength that has turned Havenstein into a mauler will optimistically do the same for Benzschawel.
NFL Comparison: Alex Boone

 | Michael jackson |
Player Bio: Michael Jackson Sr prepped at Spain Park High School in Birmingham, AL where he was rated as the number cornerback in the State of Alabama. Jackson was selected to play in the All-Star game with the states of Alabama vs Mississippi. Jackson would lead all tacklers with 12 tackles in the game. Jackson set his reputation in the State of Alabama as one of the states most premier defenders and spurn the University of Alabama. He signed his intent to attend University Miami over Minnesota, Cincinnati, and Nebraska. Even from the state of Alabama, neither Auburn or Alabama offered Jackson a scholarship. He would receive an offer from Clemson at the last moment but stayed with Miami. Jackson’s ability to finish a receiver’s route, track the ball in the air and ultimately create a turnover or incomplete were just a few of his admirable qualities. That type of ability showed during the years he was on the field wearing the "Turnover Chain."

#5 Tyree Jackson vs. Temple (2018)
Strengths:
-Big hands and tall frame that might lure some teams.
-Good, big arm. Can sling it deep.
-Showed velocity and anticipation in his throws.
-Double threat QB that can make damage on the ground.
-Good progression reading.
-Great mobility to stretch plays.
-Can throw off-balance when needed.
Weaknesses:
-Low accuracy.
-Footwork non-existent.
-Lack of touch on deep balls.
-When pressured, he prefers to throw a 50-50 throw, rather than take the sack.
-When coverage is tight, he struggles to make his reads
Draft Grade: 5.29
Draft Projection: 4th --5th (should go 5-7)
Does He Fit?: YES: Jared Goff under control for the next two years, (hopefully longer) the Rams are in no need to add a starting quarterback. McVay can draft a guy who has a big arm and some desirable traits for developmental QB's; he has all the physical tools that coach love, but he needs to work in his accuracy and pocket footwork if he wants to ever start a game in the NFL. His size and running ability will get him some suitors sooner rather than later. With the right coaching staff (McVay) he could be ready to take the league by surprise in a couple of years.

#11 vosean joseph vs. lsu (2018)
Strengths: Has the excellent ability to become passive when diagnosing and reacting to the play. Has an urgent explosion as a speed rusher while exploding through the run gaps as a blitzer. Has very active hands to free himself from the more significant blockers even with swipes and chops.
Plays fast on the field with above-average lateral agility and to settle down on backs that cutback against the grade. He plays with a lot of aggression and intensity on the field. He has an effective sideline-to-sideline range and tremendous closing speed. Has excellent ability to keep the play in front of him to make the play on the carrier. High awareness as a pass defender, the tremendous upside for the linebacker.
Weaknesses: Needs to bulk up his body, the thin built frame can use more weight and body mass. Will get mauled by the massive lineman ascending into the second level. Despite diagnosing plays well, will shoot through the wrong gap allowing significant gains. Tends to go for the kill hit oppose to wrapping up. Will bite on play action plays, becoming a liability in man coverage. Potentially can be moved from linebacker to the strong safety position.
Draft Grade: 5.50
Draft Projection: 2nd - 3rd Round
Does He Fit?: Yes, still looking for the inside presence at linebacker, is athletic prospect with an above average initial burst that enables him to close on ball-carriers rather easily. If he can put on more bulk, can become a force to reckon with on the field.
