Happy New Year!
As many know, Tony Pauline is one of the more connected insiders with legitimate sources within the NFL scouting community. Here are a few mailbag questions I pulled off his column on pro football network.com:
Is it just me, or is the 2021 cornerback class very weak at the top and lacking depth in the middle rounds?
I agree, and I will add that it’s not just the cornerback position; the entire secondary class is very suspect this year. Patrick Surtain II, Shaun Wade, Caleb Farley, and Jaycee Horn all have warts in their games and are no sure things. Derion Kendrick is developing, but he still needs work. The corner class really drops off after that and the safety position is even worse.
Whose draft stock has fallen the most this college football season?
Florida State defensive tackle Marvin Wilson was considered a potential Day 2 pick at one time, but he’s been invisible for most of the year. He now grades as a mid-Day 3 selection.
Here is a blurb on his draft big board:
Zaven Collins also moved up the board as the positive chatter on his play and instincts is growing louder in the scouting community.
Currently has Collins as the #12 prospect. Pauline was the one who had Lve as a 1st rd prospect even before the combine, where many media draft sites had him as more of a mid-round player.
