Here is our scouting report on Yodny Cajuste. Yodny Cajuste, West Virginia, 6-5 312……

Patriots Draft: Scouting Report on RB Damien Harris

The Patriots surprisingly drafted Harris with pick 87 in the third round. On paper, the Patriots are deep at the running back position with Sony Michel, James White, Rex Burkhead and Brandon Bolden.

It is overstated at times but Winovich is your prototypical Patriot. He can play multiple roles and is a team first player. Here is our scouting report on Winovich. Chase Winovich, Michigan, 6-3 256 Player Comp: Brooks Reed Vs. Run: Winovich……
