There are plenty of prospects who don’t meet the thresholds regarding size in the NFL. Drew Dalman is another player in a long line of players this year who have family ties to the NFL. His father, Chris Dalman also played in the big leagues for the 49ers for seven seasons. Now, another son of a former player is set to have his name called next weekend.
With the NFL Draft just a week away, what better topic for this weekly piece than a look at the biggest draft busts of the Tennessee Titans franchise. Many players could make the list of draft busts for their respective teams. It’s proven to be a roll of the dice.
The Pittsburgh Panthers have many intriguing prospects heading to the 2021 NFL Draft. Pittsburgh is sending two pass rushers to the NFL with Rashad Weaver and Patrick Jones II declaring. Jones may be the better of the two and offers some great traits in his pass-rushing and run-defending skills. He is likely going to be a day three pick and would be a nice value selection at that spot.
With about one week to go until the 2021 NFL Draft, rumors are flying everywhere. The hard part about rumors is sifting through the good and the bad.
Chauncey Golston is an edge rusher who is not necessarily going to stuff the stat sheet, but he knows exactly what he has to do on the field and executes. Currently projected as a day three draft selection, Golston has performed above that level on his film and is a very underrated prospect.
The 2021 NFL Draft is full of players with family ties throughout the draft. A player that many aren’t talking about that also has family ties deeper in the draft is Blake Proehl. Proehl is the son of former receiver, Ricky Proehl and his brother is a receiver for the 49ers. The younger brother offers a different skillset than his brother and father and is hardly getting any talk as a day three steal.
The 2021 NFL Draft is just over a week away. After months of preparation, it’s almost time to get on the clock and make a pick. With just over a week to go, it is time to release our staff’s group positional rankings.
Hamsah Nasirildeen is an incredibly fun player to watch. He’s a 6’3″ strong safety out of Florida State, who can be used virtually anywhere. Nasirildeen is more known for his play in the box, and as a traditional strong safety, but he can be used in coverage when needed.
Austin Watkins has soared under the radar. Playing at UAB, he never became a standout name among the college football ranks. But every year, we saw a handful of small-school studs and Watkins is definitely one of them.
The 2021 NFL Draft appears to be light on quality interior defensive lineman, opposed to recent years. This however could open the door to players slipping through the cracks and becoming great finds later. Enter Daviyon Nixon from Iowa, a hyper-athletic interior defensive tackle who brings a good deal of tools to the table.
After a terrific 2019 season that included an FBS leading 2,094 rushing yards and 21 rushing touchdowns, Chuba Hubbard decided to play in 2020 despite the option to opt-out because of Covid-19 and prepare for the draft.
Spencer Brown is a top ten player at his position and I’m not talking about the tackle. While the Northern Iowa tackle has gotten a lot of hype, there is another player with the same name that is a good football player as well. This one is a running back from UAB. He ran for over 4,000 yards, 41 rushing touchdowns, and 19 career games with over 100 yards. Brown is seen as a consensus undrafted pick, but there is certainly more talent than that.
