Brandon Aiyuk Draft Profile
College: Arizona State
Class: Sr.
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 195
Strong Points
Stepping into a featured role with N’Keal Harry off to the NFL, Aiyuk emerged as a true star in his own right. He’s fast, physical and ultra-competitive, college football’s best receiver when it comes to running after the catch. Once the ball is in his hands, he’s a twitched-up mover with the ability to string together moves and slip multiple tackles, to go along with the vision and creativity of a running back. He showed signs of becoming a more complete receiver during his senior year. He has the long speed to threaten downfield and the leaping skills and competitive nature to win contested-catch situations despite not being the biggest receiver. He showed a better understanding of route running as a senior, with crisper footwork and a better feel for route stems, combining with his athleticism to allow him to create separation consistently. He offers value as a return specialist as well.
Weak Points
A junior college transfer, Aiyuk is still a bit raw when it comes to some of the nuances of the position. He ran a fairly limited route tree at ASU and has to become more consistent escaping press coverage. Physically, he’s not a particularly big receiver and might have a significantly lower success rate in contested-catch scenarios. He failed a physical before the Senior Bowl, and medicals might become an issue during the pre-draft process.
Summary
He’s a big-time talent who is ascending rapidly, and while Aiyuk might not hit his ceiling for a couple years, he has true No. 1 potential as a big-time catch-and-run threat and emerging deep threat. In the meantime, he should thrive as a complementary offensive weapon and return specialist.

PATH TO THE DRAFTDTs participating virtually in 2020 NFL Draft announced
Player Bio
Harrison was a top-50 ATH recruit nationally after starting for three years at quarterback for Columbus' Walnut Ridge High School. He wanted to play receiver at his hometown school but moved to linebacker to get more playing time given the team's depth on offense. Harrison played in 12 games as a reserve his true freshman season (13 tackles), and then in 14 games with a start against Michigan State in 2017 (36 tackles, three for loss, 1.5 sacks). Big Ten coaches named him honorable mention All-Big Ten as a junior, tying for the Buckeyes' lead with 81 tackles (8.5 for loss, 2.5 sacks, interception). Harrison again proved himself a playmaker for the Buckeyes as a senior, garnering third-team Associated Press All-American and first-team All-Big Ten notice as the team's leading tackler (75 stops, 16.5 for loss, 4.5 sacks, four pass breakups in 14 starts).
Analysis
By Lance Zierlein
NFL Analyst
NFL Comparison
K.J. Wright
Overview
Long-legged, loose-hipped linebacker with desired combination of size, physicality and range to help ruin the running game for teams needing linebacker help. His constant downhill mode disrupts blocking schemes and brings impact tackles, but it can be used against him with play-action and misdirection. The instincts are just average but his physical traits even it out on most snaps. He has some coverage limitations but can pressure the pocket as a blitzer and has the athleticism to spy mobile quarterbacks. He's big and tough with the potential to become a good starter inside or as a 4-3 strong-side linebacker.

An offensive tackle at New Jersey's Don Bosco Prep, Hennessy moved to center for Temple and excelled. He was named third-team Associated Press All-American, first-team All-American Athletic Conference, and a finalist for the Remington Trophy as the nation's best pivot in 2019. Hennessy started 12 games in his final collegiate season, 11 in 2018, and 12 in 2017, missing four games due to injury over the three seasons. Coaches got him in for three games, including one start at left guard, in his first season on campus; he qualified for a redshirt that season. His brother, Thomas, was a long snapper at Duke and is now handling those duties for the New York Jets.

Joe Hawley
Overview
Three-year starter who uses hand placement, leverage and athletic ability to make up for his lack of mass and length. He's patient to center blocks and runs his feet to lock in and begin sustaining. He has the lateral quickness and body control to reach, pull and stay connected to blocks on the move. He has issues with timing blocks up to linebackers, but that should be correctable. Below-average physical traits could limit his suitors, but scheme fits will like the movement and intangibles he brings to the table. He has early backup, eventual starter potential.

Player Bio
Zaccheus Moss was committed to Miami until the school moved on from head coach Al Golden in 2015. His cousins, Santana and Sinorice Moss, both played for "the U," but Zack decided to make his own path by heading to Salt Lake City. He played in 10 games for the Utes as a true freshman, starting three games but missing three others due to injury (84 carries, 382 yards, 4.5 ypc, two touchdowns). Moss started 12 of 13 games played in 2017, leading the team with 1,173 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns on 214 carries (5.5 per). He made an impact in Utah's win over West Virginia in the Heart of Dallas Bowl that season (20 carries, 150 yards, 7.5 ypc, one touchdown). Moss was a second-team All-Pac-12 pick in 2018, starting the first nine games of the year before aggravating a knee injury while getting into his bed one evening. He rushed for 1,092 yards and 11 touchdowns on 179 totes (6.1 per) despite missing four contests. The injury kept him from jumping to the NFL a year early. Moss returned with a vengeance, starting 12 of 13 games played and garnering third-team Associated Press All-American and first-team all-conference honors as one of the nation's top rushers (235 carries, 1,416 yards, 6.0 ypc, 15 touchdowns) and a threat in the passing game (28 receptions, 388 yards, 13.9 average, two touchdowns).
Analysis

Marion Barber
Overview
Watching Moss' game tape is like watching an exercise in controlled violence on just about every carry, but his vision, balance, patience and wiggle are additional skills that help to make him a well-rounded runner. There is some wear and tear that could lend additional importance to his medicals and he may need to become more discerning with his physical challenges if he wants to see a second contract. He is a great fit for gap and inside zone-heavy rushing attacks and could become an effective, instant starter.

Player Bio
Wilson was a two-time all-state player at both defensive back and wide receiver for Casper, Wyoming's Natrona County High School. The Cowboys fought off Colorado for his services. After a redshirt season, Wilson was a 14-game starter and Mountain West Conference Freshman of the Year (94 tackles, 7.5 for loss, three sacks, three interceptions, and four pass breakups). He was even more productive as a sophomore, garnering second-team all-conference accolades with a team-high 119 tackles , eight for loss, one interception, and two forced fumbles in 13 starts. Wilson led his squad in tackles again in 2018 (103) as well as tackles for loss (11) while intercepting two passes and breaking up two others on his way to honorable mention All-MWC honors. He was a first-team all-conference pick as a senior and was also named third-team Associated Press All-American for his efforts (104 tackles, 9.5 for loss, one sack, three interceptions, six pass breakups in 13 starts).

Kelvin Sheppard
Overview
Ultra-productive three-year team captain with instincts and cover talent to find work as an every-down linebacker. His play recognition, burst and lateral agility help him play faster than his timed speed and his fundamentals as a tackler are as good as you'll find in this draft. Wilson needs more consistency of approach at taking on blocks and it may take him a minute to adjust to NFL game speed. He should be a core special teams member early, but possesses the tangibles and intangibles to become a productive pro as an inside or SAM (strong-side) linebacker.

Watkins became a star receiver for the Golden Eagles over the past two years, garnering first-team All-Conference USA honors each season. In 2018, he started all 13 games and led the squad in receiving with 72 receptions for 889 yards (12.3 per) and nine touchdowns. Watkins missed the first two games of his senior year for an undisclosed reason but came back to rack up a team-high 1,024 yards and five touchdowns on 55 catches (18.6 per). He was a three-star recruit and second-team all-state selection from Athens, Alabama, who redshirted his first year in Hattiesburg before recording 23-337-14.7, two TDs in 13 games in 2017.
Analysis
By Lance Zierlein
NFL Analyst
NFL Comparison
J'Mon Moore
Overview
Early-entry prospect with adequate size and speed but needs to prove he can rise to the occasion against NFL competition. Watkins' confidence has been affected by level of competition and his catch focus appears to change when he works into traffic. Hip tightness limits route effectiveness, but he runs well enough to work vertically and across the field with modest separation and above-average jump-ball talent. His leap in production is a good sign, but if he doesn't do a better job of getting away from press, he will have a hard time making it. The potential outweighs the concerns and he should be a Day 3 selection with a shot at becoming a WR4/5.
Strengths
"I might be a little higher on him than some others you talk to because I saw improvement and I see areas of his game that can keep getting better with time and work." -- Area scout for NFC team

Player Bio
Dallas had issues with ball security during his sophomore season with the Hurricanes and began seeing the school's sports psychologist to overcome the problem. He had four fumbles on 109 carries in 2018, though his explosiveness was evident as he covered 617 yards (5.7 per) and scored a team-high six times on the ground (also 10-85-8.5 receiving, 17-367-21.6 kick returns, 11-191-17.4, TD punt returns). The mental work that Dallas put in before his junior year paid off; he led the Hurricanes in rushing in 2019 (115-693-6.0, eight TDs) and did not fumble once. He also contributed in the passing game (14-140-10.0, two TDs) despite playing in just 10 games (all starts) as his season was cut short by a dislocated left elbow. Dallas played in 12 games as a reserve in his true freshman campaign (41-217-5.3, three TDs rushing; 4-92-23.0 receiving, 2-40-20.0 kick returns). Miami signed Dallas out of Georgia's Glynn Academy as one of the top 15 athlete prospects in the country.
Analysis
By Lance Zierlein
NFL Analyst
Overview
Dallas was a high school quarterback who came into Miami as a receiver and converted to running back during the 2017 season. The production is modest and the instincts are a work in progress, but there are flashes of run-lane feel and downhill smoothness that could be a sign of future development. He has size, speed and a surprising amount of pop as a finisher. His contact balance makes him hard to bring down through contact, but he needs to improve his open-field wiggle. He lacks third-down readiness, but his special teams talent should make up for that. The traits and toughness make him an intriguing upside prospect on Day 3.
Strengths
"He's got good football character and kept running hard for a mediocre team." -- Pro personnel director for AFC team
================================================================================
PressureD41's review of his picks:
Thinks he found Cooks replacement w/ Brandon Aiyuk..
Thinks he found a thumper MLB in Malik Harrison
Thinks he found a future centre in Matt Hennessy
Thinks he found a good 1b RB in Zack Moss, found value@ 104 pick Despite turning away from the U! 4 min closer
Thinks he's found a possible ILB to develop in Logan Wilson, w/ hopes of pushing starters and a better Littleton clone (pair w/ Harrison)
Thinks he's found a Kick off returner in Quez Watkins, and developmental WR, tho mainly a KO guy in my mind
Thinks he's found a developmental RB in Deejay Dallas so Mr. Bown can mould and replace malcom brown soon. Plus another return option
Let me know if I took these guys at the correct spot in the draft. Feedback wanted boys & ladies. Pretty sure this will be a hall of fame drafted team here

- Needs more consistent knee bend to play under angle blocks to anchor
- Can be undisciplined in contain duties against zone-reads
- Average instincts and play recognition from the middle
- Inconsistent angles to the ball
- Gets sucked up by play-action, opening passing windows
- Limitations in man coverage

There is some wear and tear that could lend additional importance to his medicals and he may need to become more discerning with his physical challenges if he wants to see a second contract.

Strengths
- Well-built with power dispersed throughout
- Both patient and urgent gears at his disposal
- Runs with rare calm in the face of early penetration
- Underrated vision to process and game plan beyond the line of scrimmage
- Adequate burst inside with feel for the contour of the running lane
- Short-stepping running style with elite contact balance
- Arm tacklers might want to call in sick
- Absorbs contact like a cement truck
- Spin moves toss tacklers aside
- Drops and squares pads as a finisher
- Small space power to move the chains and find the paint
- Has ability to handle third down duties if called into action
- Tight hips limit turn radius on first and second level
- Additional gather steps before making the cut
- Average overall game speed
- More likely to elude and punish rather than string moves together
- Running style could lead to durability concerns
- Had season-ending surgery on meniscus in 2018
- Quicker than fast and unlikely to run away from NFL speed
- Fumbling has been a small concern in the past

Player Bio
Wilson was a two-time all-state player at both defensive back and wide receiver for Casper, Wyoming's Natrona County High School. The Cowboys fought off Colorado for his services. After a redshirt season, Wilson was a 14-game starter and Mountain West Conference Freshman of the Year (94 tackles, 7.5 for loss, three sacks, three interceptions, and four pass breakups). He was even more productive as a sophomore, garnering second-team all-conference accolades with a team-high 119 tackles , eight for loss, one interception, and two forced fumbles in 13 starts. Wilson led his squad in tackles again in 2018 (103) as well as tackles for loss (11) while intercepting two passes and breaking up two others on his way to honorable mention All-MWC honors. He was a first-team all-conference pick as a senior and was also named third-team Associated Press All-American for his efforts (104 tackles, 9.5 for loss, one sack, three interceptions, six pass breakups in 13 starts).

Overview
Ultra-productive three-year team captain with instincts and cover talent to find work as an every-down linebacker. His play recognition, burst and lateral agility help him play faster than his timed speed and his fundamentals as a tackler are as good as you'll find in this draft. Wilson needs more consistency of approach at taking on blocks and it may take him a minute to adjust to NFL game speed. He should be a core special teams member early, but possesses the tangibles and intangibles to become a productive pro as an inside or SAM (strong-side) linebacker.
Strengths
- Well-built with ability to play MIKE or SAM linebacker
- Plays and excels on all three downs
- Alert and instinctive pre- and post-snap
- Rarely trapped behind climbing blocks on stretch plays
- Shoots into backside zone gaps looking to make a play
- Quick diagnosis improves range as tackler
- Bends and squares to leverage his gap
- Elite fundamentals as a tackler
- Comes to balance and springs into runners like a bear trap
- Impressive recognition and ball skills from zone
- Athletic ability to handle some man coverage
- Needs to balance activity level with early patience
- May not fully trust his own pursuit speed
- Can be too early to the spot and lose backside leverage
- Inconsistent attacking lead blocks downhill
- Baited out of position by false keys
- Average shed quickness once the block lands
- Has to guard against shallow pursuit angles in pros
- Could have issues covering seam speed

Player Bio
Watkins became a star receiver for the Golden Eagles over the past two years, garnering first-team All-Conference USA honors each season. In 2018, he started all 13 games and led the squad in receiving with 72 receptions for 889 yards (12.3 per) and nine touchdowns. Watkins missed the first two games of his senior year for an undisclosed reason but came back to rack up a team-high 1,024 yards and five touchdowns on 55 catches (18.6 per). He was a three-star recruit and second-team all-state selection from Athens, Alabama, who redshirted his first year in Hattiesburg before recording 23-337-14.7, two TDs in 13 games in 2017.

Overview
Early-entry prospect with adequate size and speed but needs to prove he can rise to the occasion against NFL competition. Watkins' confidence has been affected by level of competition and his catch focus appears to change when he works into traffic. Hip tightness limits route effectiveness, but he runs well enough to work vertically and across the field with modest separation and above-average jump-ball talent. His leap in production is a good sign, but if he doesn't do a better job of getting away from press, he will have a hard time making it. The potential outweighs the concerns and he should be a Day 3 selection with a shot at becoming a WR4/5.
Strengths
- Adequate size/speed combination outside
- Grew into his athletic ability in 2019
- Play was much more composed and explosive
- At his best playing vertical and running through zones
- Workable separation on over routes and crossers
- Getting better making catches in a crowd
- Leaper with good timing to alter jump-ball odds
- Sudden burst after catch to get away from immediate tackler
- Can compete as kick/punt returner
- Unable to maintain level of play against better competition
- Hemmed up by physicality of Alabama's Trevon Diggs
- Hands and feet need more schooling to defeat cramped release
- Hip tightness restricts flow of route
- Struggles to bend and brake on intermediate comebacks
- Late adjusting to underthrown balls
- Shows signs of skittishness working into traffic
- Appears to be a body-catcher by nature
"I might be a little higher on him than some others you talk to because I saw improvement and I see areas of his game that can keep getting better with time and work." -- Area scout for NFC team

Player Bio
Dallas had issues with ball security during his sophomore season with the Hurricanes and began seeing the school's sports psychologist to overcome the problem. He had four fumbles on 109 carries in 2018, though his explosiveness was evident as he covered 617 yards (5.7 per) and scored a team-high six times on the ground (also 10-85-8.5 receiving, 17-367-21.6 kick returns, 11-191-17.4, TD punt returns). The mental work that Dallas put in before his junior year paid off; he led the Hurricanes in rushing in 2019 (115-693-6.0, eight TDs) and did not fumble once. He also contributed in the passing game (14-140-10.0, two TDs) despite playing in just 10 games (all starts) as his season was cut short by a dislocated left elbow. Dallas played in 12 games as a reserve in his true freshman campaign (41-217-5.3, three TDs rushing; 4-92-23.0 receiving, 2-40-20.0 kick returns). Miami signed Dallas out of Georgia's Glynn Academy as one of the top 15 athlete prospects in the country.
Analysis

Overview
Dallas was a high school quarterback who came into Miami as a receiver and converted to running back during the 2017 season. The production is modest and the instincts are a work in progress, but there are flashes of run-lane feel and downhill smoothness that could be a sign of future development. He has size, speed and a surprising amount of pop as a finisher. His contact balance makes him hard to bring down through contact, but he needs to improve his open-field wiggle. He lacks third-down readiness, but his special teams talent should make up for that. The traits and toughness make him an intriguing upside prospect on Day 3.
Strengths
- Played WR and RB at Miami
- Added bad weight in 2018, but slimmed down in 2019
- Instincts and feel for rush track improved during season
- Does a nice job of running tacklers into blocks
- Plus burst with decent getaway juice at his disposal
- Willing accelerator through contact for heavy forward finish
- Slippery to tackle and hard to get down
- Choppy feet and contact balance to keep runs going
- Potential to become a four-phase special-teamer with return talent
- Still learning to hone his instincts as a runner
- Inconsistent processing and resolving sudden traffic
- More one speed than patient in his approach
- Below average setting up open-field tacklers on the levels to miss
- Still figuring out efficiency of footwork for downhill cuts
- Doesn't always know where he needs to be in protection
- Take-on technique will need work
- Needs better tuck-away ball security
"He's got good football character and kept running hard for a mediocre team." -- Pro personnel director for AFC team
================================================================================
PressureD41's review of his picks:
Thinks he found Cooks replacement w/ Brandon Aiyuk..
Thinks he found a thumper MLB in Malik Harrison
Thinks he found a future centre in Matt Hennessy
Thinks he found a good 1b RB in Zack Moss, found value@ 104 pick Despite turning away from the U! 4 min closer
Thinks he's found a possible ILB to develop in Logan Wilson, w/ hopes of pushing starters and a better Littleton clone (pair w/ Harrison)
Thinks he's found a Kick off returner in Quez Watkins, and developmental WR, tho mainly a KO guy in my mind
Thinks he's found a developmental RB in Deejay Dallas so Mr. Bown can mould and replace malcom brown soon. Plus another return option
Let me know if I took these guys at the correct spot in the draft. Feedback wanted boys & ladies. Pretty sure this will be a hall of fame drafted team here
