Williams is a dime cornerback at 5-9 185 but perhaps his biggest asset isn’t what he can do as corner but what he can do as a kick returner. Here is my scouting report on Avery Williams. Scouting Report Avery Williams, CB, 5-9 195, Boise State Man to Man: Williams can line up in the slot and has the hip and hand to jam slot receivers and re-route them. Stays……
Jaime Newman has had quite the journey since 2019. After a big season at Wake Forest where some were projecting he would be a first round pick, Newman decided to transfer to Georgia. Unfortunately COVID 19 happened last spring and Newman decided to opt out of the 2020 season. After not playing last season and not impressing at the Senior Bowl, there are a lot of question marks surrounding Newman…….
Hall is a big corner who can also slide inside and play safety in certain sub packages. A two year starter at San Diego State, Hall’s ball skills, willingness to support the run and versatility make him a prime Patriots target on day three. Here is my scouting report on Darren Hall. Scouting Report Darren Hall, CB, 5-11 1/2 189, San Diego State Man to Man: Hall has above average……
The Patriots signed Jonnu Smith and Hunter Henry this off-season and they drafted Devin Asiasi and Dalton Keene last year. There is no way they would draft a tight end right? Wrong! Tommy Tremble is the type of tight end the Patriots would draft. At 6-3 240, Tremble is a move tight end who can play the U (second tight end) and line up all over the place in formations…….
The Patriots have always had success with smaller, shifty running backs who can play multiple roles within the offense. From Kevin Faulk to Danny Woodhead to James White, no other team in the NFL in recent years has used smaller running backs the way the Patriots have. Especially in the passing game. White is still on the team as are Sony Michel, Damien Harris and J.J Taylor. Running back isn’t……
The Patriots appear to be trending to more of a 30 front in 2021 based on some of their signings in free agency. Daelin Hayes profiles as either a five technique defensive end in the 4-3 or as an outside linebacker in a 30 front. At 6-3 1/2 253, he has the length, explosiveness and get off to be an effective pass rusher but he can also extend, anchor and……
The Patriots need to get stouter inside. It’s no secret. Togiai is a wide bodied, athletic nose tackle who can win with good off and gap controlling an offensive lineman. Schematically, Togiai is a sound fit for the Patriots. It’s just a matter of where they would take him in this draft. Here is my scouting report on Tommy Togiai. Scouting Report Tommy Togiai, DT, 6’2 300, Ohio State Vs…….
The Patriots value route running and strong perhaps more than other team in the NFL. Sure, they want guys who can run and separate but running a good route and consistently catching the football are the most important receiver traits they look for. Seth Williams posses those traits and then some. At 6-3 211, he has good size, strong hands and he is one of the purest route runners in……
We have talked extensively about the importance of versatility when it comes to the Patriots. Bill Belichick looks for it in every player he drafts and evaluates. Jamar Johnson would be that type of player. He offers tremendous versatility because he can play all three downs and in all situations. Johnson is far from an elite athlete but he is a good football player who can contribute in a myriad……
The Patriots have gone down this road before. They drafted Purdue inside linebacker Ja’Whaun Bentley in 2018. Bentley has flashed potential as a thumper at MIKE backer but he hasn’t played to the level the team was hoping for. Barnes is a similar player but more athletic and little bit better in coverage. Do the Patriots go down this road again in their search for a true middle linebacker? We……
