Cornerback. Alabama. Trevon Diggs. 54. 21. player. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis

Trevon Diggs name will be hurt early in the draft process, but he may be able to redeem it at the combine. A former wide receiver like his brother Stefon, Diggs doesn’t enjoy tackling. Put on his LSU tape and prepare to be disgusted. Still, Diggs is the next in a long line of impressive Alabama defensive backs possessing a wide value of coverage techniques that will help his transition to the next level.

Philadelphia is desperate for help at cornerback. Even if the team targets the top names in free agency, drafting one in the first round is still the way to go for the Eagles.

35. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Penn State. Yetur Gross-Matos. 22. Edge Rusher. player

Yetur Gross-Matos isn’t a finished product, and that is a terrifying fact. Accompanied by nine sacks in his 2019 season, Gross Matos is an overwhelming athlete at 6’5″ 265 pounds. His skills haven’t caught up with his motor yet, but once they do, Gross-Matos will be one of the league’s top edge rushers.

In this situation, head coach Mike Vrabel, a former elite pass rusher in his own right, is tasked with unlocking the potential of this prospect.

Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Wide Receiver. Clemson. Tee Higgins. 23. player. 16

Josh Allen has lead his Buffalo Bills to the postseason. While the defensive side of the ball seems well in place, the offense could use more weapons. Tee Higgins has fallen this far due simply to team needs.

He’s a top-15 talent who could easily become the number one receiver on several teams in the NFL, the Bills being one. With Devin Singletary holding down the running game, Josh Allen’s offense continues to build in an effort to return to glory.
