[dbair1967]

Kiper: Best prospects at Senior Bowl


ESPN - Not Found

1. O.J. Howard, TE, Alabama
Senior Bowl team: South | Uniform number: 88

Howard, my top-ranked tight end, is the lone prospect at the Senior Bowl whom I have in the first round of my initial mock draft. With only seven touchdowns in four seasons for the Crimson Tide, he was underutilized. He could be a guy who has a better pro career than college career. Howard (6-foot-6, 250 pounds) could catch a lot of passes at the next level, and he's a solid blocker.

2. Jordan Willis, DE, Kansas State
Senior Bowl team: South | Uniform number: 75

In a class loaded with pass-rushers, don't count Willis out as a potential first-round pick. He's really good. Willis (6-foot-5, 250 pounds) had 21 sacks for the Wildcats the past two seasons and was the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year in 2016. Consistency is what stands out -- you know what you'll get from Willis every play. He also holds up well against the run, which is important in the NFL. He's my No. 7 defensive end, but he could move up with a standout week of practices.

3. Forrest Lamp, OG, Western Kentucky
Senior Bowl team: South | Uniform number: 76

Lamp played left tackle for the Hilltoppers, but he projects as a right tackle or guard in the NFL. He could have a 12-year career because of his versatility. Lamp (6-foot-3, 300 pounds) has good feet, is a sound technician and is very alert, which means he sees blitzes and senses stunts ahead of time. These traits are why I think he's ready to play immediately in the NFL in 2017. Lamp is in the second-round range right now, and he's my top-ranked guard.

4. Ryan Anderson, OLB, Alabama
Senior Bowl team: South | Uniform number: 22

You could make the case that Anderson was Alabama's defensive MVP in 2016 -- yes, over surefire first-round picks Reuben Foster and Jonathan Allen. He had nine sacks, four forced fumbles and an interception in his first season as a full-time starter. Anderson (6-foot-2, 255 pounds) is a steady, complete linebacker who always shows up around the ball. I think he'll play as a 3-4 outside linebacker, and he could contribute immediately.

5. Tre'Davious White, CB, LSU
Senior Bowl team: South | Uniform number: 18

White is another defender on the fringes of the first round; he's my No. 7 cornerback, and the six before him are all included in my initial mock draft. White (5-foot-10, 170 pounds) led the nation in pass breakups in 2016 (15), but he had only six interceptions in his four-year career. You'd like to see him catch a few more of those passes he broke up. White was LSU's punt returner (three career touchdown returns), and that helps his NFL stock.

6. Carlos Watkins, DT, Clemson
Senior Bowl team: South | Uniform number: 94

With 10.5 sacks, Watson had a huge senior season for the national champs. He had only 3.5 coming into 2016. Watkins has shown that he can rush the passer from the interior, and his frame (6-foot-3, 305 pounds) means he could put on some weight and play nose tackle in a 3-4. He might be better inside in a 4-3, though. He ranks as my No. 3 defensive tackle.

7. Chris Wormley, DE, Michigan
Senior Bowl team: North | Uniform number: 43

Wormley is another pass-rusher who could be picked in the first three rounds. He didn't put up huge sack numbers -- 12.5 the past two seasons -- and he doesn't have the upside of teammate Taco Charlton, but Wormley is solid. At 6-foot-4, 290 pounds, he could play in multiple schemes. Wormley is my No. 9 defensive end.

8. Ethan Pocic, C, LSU
Senior Bowl team: South | Uniform number: 77

Pocic is the clear-cut best center in this draft, and he could have a long career anchoring a team's line. At 6-foot-7, 301 pounds, he doesn't look like a typical center. He could probably slide out to guard. I don't think he's a first-round guy like Ryan Kelly was last year, but he's a guy who could start immediately.

9. Jourdan Lewis, CB, Michigan
Senior Bowl team: North | Uniform number: 26

Lewis does everything NFL teams want from corners; he can turn his hips and run with any receiver, he has good ball skills (six picks in his career), and he has put up some good tape against talented receivers in the Big Ten. But size is an issue: He's only 5-foot-10 and 159 pounds. In a draft with big corners at the top, that's going to hurt his stock. I still see him as a Day 2 pick, though, because he can play the slot too.

10. Desmond King, CB, Iowa
Senior Bowl team: North | Uniform number: 14

A four-year starter for the Hawkeyes, King had an amazing 2015 season, with eight interceptions. He came back down to earth this season -- three interceptions -- and I have him in the second-round range. I want to see what he runs at the combine. I don't think he has elite speed. But he's a playmaker, and he has good size (5-foot-11, 185 pounds).

11. Cooper Kupp, WR, Eastern Washington
Senior Bowl team: North | Uniform number: 10

With 100 catches in each of the past three seasons -- and 93 as a freshman -- Kupp has been one of the most productive players in the country. He had 74 career touchdowns for the Eagles, working mainly from the slot. Kupp (6-foot-2, 205 pounds) has tremendous hands, is durable and consistently beats double-teams. I thought he could have entered the 2016 draft and been a midround pick, and he's in the Day 2 range this year.

12. Damontae Kazee, CB, San Diego State
Senior Bowl team: South | Uniform number: 24

Like King, Kazee has put up some ridiculous numbers: He had 15 interceptions over his past two seasons. Pound for pound, Kazee (5-foot-11, 175 pounds) was one of the best defenders in the country. He has shown great instincts, and he could move up my rankings with a great week of practices in Mobile and a solid workout at the combine.

13. Dalvin Tomlinson, DT, Alabama
Senior Bowl team: South | Uniform number: 54

Tomlinson is a guy who has gone under the radar because of the talent around him on the Crimson Tide defense. At 6-foot-2, 310 pounds, he shows good explosiveness and strength, gets good leverage and plays through double-teams. The fifth-year senior finished the season with three sacks. Versatility is an important part of his pro future, as he could play in a 4-3 defense or even as a nose tackle in a 3-4.

14. Eddie Vanderdoes, DT, UCLA
Senior Bowl team: South | Uniform number: 47

Vanderdoes is an intriguing guy who flashes first-round ability, but he doesn't have the production of a first-round pick. An ACL injury wiped out most of his 2015 season, and he had only 1.5 sacks in 2016. Vanderdoes' size (6-foot-4, 305 pounds) and athleticism jump off the tape. I'm interested in how he fares this week.

15. Dawuane Smoot, DE, Illinois
Senior Bowl team: North | Uniform number: 91

With eight sacks in 2015, Smoot looked like a first-round pick in 2015, and he was on my Big Board headed into this season. But his production fell off (five sacks), and he didn't look like the same guy in 2016. That could be because he didn't have 2015 second-round pick Jihad Ward on the other side. At 6-foot-3 and 255 pounds, Smoot plays the run well and has a high motor, but his 2016 numbers were concerning. He needs a big week to put him back into the discussion as a Day 1 pick.

Is there anyone to worth checking out in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl?

 

[Scot]

Thx for the write ups and all the work on the draft dbair

I'm not one that follows college football at all. I always just wait till the draft to see who we end up with

This off season is like to be a little better informed. This thread will help with that

Thx again

 

[Midswat]

Mississippi State WR Fred Ross (Tyler, TX), one of Dak Prescott's top targets in college, said he's met w/ Cowboys twice at the Senior Bowl.

11. Cooper Kupp, WR, Eastern Washington
Senior Bowl team: North | Uniform number: 10

With 100 catches in each of the past three seasons -- and 93 as a freshman -- Kupp has been one of the most productive players in the country. He had 74 career touchdowns for the Eagles, working mainly from the slot. Kupp (6-foot-2, 205 pounds) has tremendous hands, is durable and consistently beats double-teams. I thought he could have entered the 2016 draft and been a midround pick, and he's in the Day 2 range this year.

One thing I learned from watching Matt Johnson highlight videos is that Eastern Washington play on garish red astroturf. Do they still play on that eyesore? It could affect my decision to watch tape of this guy.

Senior Bowl Wrap-Up: 16 Risers

Tony Pauline
Draft Analyst Writer

Senior Bowl practices are a wrap and all that’s left is the game. So who made money for themselves this week? Tony Pauline and Chris Tripodi were on hand for every snap of every practice and name the 16 most prominent players of the week.

Tarell Basham/DE-OLB/Ohio: It’s a good thing we didn’t list Basham as a riser at any point last week as the defender continued to get better and better with each practice. The athleticism he displayed was outstanding as Basham was smooth, displayed a quick change of direction and moved with speed to every area of the field. He was terrific rushing the passer out of a three-point stance, effective getting to the signal-caller standing over tackle and flashed ability playing in space. He’s not a finished product, but Basham proved he has the tools to be a Sunday starter.

Eddie Vanderdoes/DT/UCLA: Many were skeptical when Vanderdoes entered the draft, but the defensive tackle turned the skepticism to intrigue at the Senior Bowl. Vanderdoes dominated anyone who tried to block him from the get-go and beat opponents with power, quickness and strength. He practiced with proper technique, showed great intensity and constantly disrupted the action.

O.J. Howard/TE/Alabama: Howard was the best of a good group of tight ends throughout all three days of Senior Bowl practice and established himself as a legitimate mid-first round choice. He made difficult one-handed grabs of errant throws, effortlessly snatched deep receptions in stride and caught the ball with proper technique. He tracked and adjusted to under thrown deep balls, used his speed to get open up the seam and looked incredibly athletic. Howard also dominated as a blocker during the one-on-ones and in scrimmages. There was an occasional drop and a fumble on the final day, but overall Howard leaves the Senior Bowl a big winner.

Dan Feeney/OL/Indiana: During weigh-ins on Tuesday you could tell Feeney meant business, then he went out and dominated the entire week. Annihilating just about everyone he faced at guard and center, Feeney showed great power and intensity and did not give up an inch to opponents. What was it like facing Feeney this week? Stand five yards away from a brick wall then run into the wall as fast as you can; that’s what opponents were facing. Feeney blocked with proper technique and neverending intensity and looked every part a top-42 pick this week.

Haason Reddick/LB/Temple: Reddick provided scouts with a number of “wow!” moments throughout the three days of Senior Bowl practice. He measured taller and bigger than many expected, looked more athletic than he does on film and proved he has three-down potential. Reddick was dominant in pass-rushing drills blitzing as a stand-up linebacker or coming out of a three-point stance. As the week progressed he improved his coverage skills, and by Thursday he was regularly making plays against the pass. He’s not the tallest linebacker but the combination of smarts, athleticism and intensity displayed by Reddick in Mobile could push him into the draft’s second day.

Cooper Kupp/WR/Eastern Washington: Kupp’s performance during Wednesday’s practice was the best by any receiver this week and while his other two days weren’t as good, he was still productive. He ran good routes, beat defensive backs to the spot and came out of breaks ready to catch the ball. The only real negative to his game was struggles catching passes in traffic, but Kupp showed he could hang at the higher level of competition this week.

Rasul Douglas/DB/West Virginia: Douglas was quite easily the North’s best corner, showing good movement ability and ball skills at 6-2, 204 pounds. His closing speed was excellent and led to multiple pass breakups, and while he had a tendency to get a bit handsy beyond the five yards -- drawing a few flags in the process -- Douglas is a definite riser heading out of Mobile.

Evan Engram/TE/Mississippi: Engram may not have had the same impact as his rival O.J. Howard, but he looked terrific in all aspects of the tight end position. He was strong and dominant in blocking drills and on several occasions, Engram manhandled defensive linemen. He quickly released off the line, ran solid routes and made several nice catches in the deep field. Engram added his name to the list of tight ends likely to be selected during the second day of the draft.

Montravius Adams/DT/Auburn: Adams was completely dominant every day this week and looked like a man amongst boys from the get-go. He was unstoppable and collapsed the pocket as blockers attempted in vain to slow him down. Adams walks away from the Senior Bowl with enhanced draft stock, though scouts wondered why they didn’t see this type of effort from him every Saturday.

Jonnu Smith/TE/Florida International: After Howard and Engram, Smith was probably the most complete tight end at the Senior Bowl. He’s a tremendous pass-catcher who looks like a big possession receiver as he moves through the secondary to come away with the contested catch. His blocking was better than advertised in both effort and results. Smith exceeded expectation and moved into the middle rounds with his Senior Bowl performance.

John Johnson/DB/Boston College: It’s tough for safeties to really impress at the Senior Bowl playing far off the line of scrimmage with limited tackling opportunities, but Johnson did just that. He has the fluidity and athleticism of a corner -- not surprising since he split time between corner and safety in 2015 before focusing on safety in 2016 -- and showed good range, ball-tracking ability and recognition against both the pass and the run. Johnson made himself money in Mobile.

Taywan Taylor/WR/Western Kentucky: Similar to Kupp, Taylor proved he belonged with three solid practices in Mobile. He was the smoothest receiver on the field this week, making catches at full speed and immediately working down the field for YAC. Once in the open field, Taylor is shifty and can make defenders miss and showed great focus and concentration to make catches in tight coverage. A natural receiver, Taylor boosted his stock in a big way in Mobile.

Carroll Phillips/DE-OLB/Illinois: Phillips spent most of his college career at defensive end, but during Senior Bowl practices he switched to outside linebacker and didn’t miss a beat. Phillips showed terrific speed, quickness and athleticism. He fired up the field rushing the passer, easily changed direction and was fast pursuing the action laterally. He also did a solid job dropping off the line of scrimmage in coverage drills and covered a lot of area. Like Reddick and Basham, Phillip proved he has the tools to play in the NFL.

Damontae Kazee/DB/San Diego State: Kazee was one of multiple corners to boost his draft stock in Mobile, and his success in press coverage at 5-10, 183 pounds against bigger receivers was a big reason why. He played well in both man and zone coverage, showed good recovery speed and played the ball in the air extremely well with his back to the quarterback. Kazee stood out each day of practice and was very consistent.

Cameron Sutton/DB/Tennessee: Sutton played well on the first day of practice but injuries gave him an extra opportunity to shine, as he was used as safety with multiple players missing time for the South. Sutton acquitted himself quite nicely at each position, covering well and showing good closing speed and ball skills. He enjoyed success in press and was rarely beaten, leaving Senior Bowl practices as a big winner.

Corey Clement/RB/Wisconsin: Clement was one of the most complete backs of the week and looked like the total package. He showed a quick burst as he picked his way on the inside through the running lanes but also had the agility to turn the corner. He was outstanding catching the ball and Clement also looked good in blocking drills.

 

[cmd34]

Zay Jones has a great week. Not sure how they leave him off this list.
