Michael Dogbe

This guy could be a day 3 pick that could make the team.

JM: Have you had any private visits or workouts?

MD: I just wrapped up a private visit with the Atlanta Falcons. I went out to lunch with a scout for the Titans. We had a great conversation. I have three local days coming up. I’m eligible to participate in the local days with the Jets, Giants and Eagles.

Dogbe is actually a guy I’d like to see Dallas take at the tail end of the draft. I’m afraid he’ll end up in Philly because they like Temple players because they’re hometown guys.

Dogbe is actually a guy I’d like to see Dallas take at the tail end of the draft. I’m afraid he’ll end up in Philly because they like Temple players because they’re hometown guys.

He also kind of reminds me of a type of player the Ravens would pick. His draft profile sounds exactly like what we look for in a 3T and a seventh round pick wouldn't be much draft capital. I didn't realize how strong he was until I saw the second article, 37 reps on the bench.

Overview
Interior rush specialist who combines quick, strong hands and lateral quickness to generate consistent pocket heat. Dogbe is an athletic rusher with a diverse rush approach which should play in his favor, but he may not be impactful enough against the run to rise beyond a backup level player with sub-rush potential. Teams could see Dogbe as a 4-3 base end or a 3-4 rush end depending on their scheme.
