Analysis (Taylor O’Neill): Valdez-Scantling is 6’4 and ran a 4.37 40. That’s the story here. MVS is a raw vertical threat. 26.4 % of his catches at South Florida went for 25 or more yards. His success in college ball was based almost entirely on his build and speed. He needs to learn how to…
Analysis (Taylor O’Neill): Scott has a big leg. He can kick it far and he can kick it high. He averaged an impressive 4.55 sec. hang time and a 46.5 yard per punt career average. He can precision punt the ball inside the 20 yard line. Team Fit (Ross Uglem): He’ll punt. NFL Player Comp…

Jackson doesn’t necessarily fit the traditional archetype that Mike Pettine has favored for his defenses in the past, but…
Analysis (Andrew Mertig): The Packers needed to get an impact defensive player with their first pick this year. After trading back (and picking up a haul from the Saints), the Packers moved up to grab Cornerback Jaire Alexander out of Louisville. Alexander doesn’t have the size the previous Green Bay regime favored in CBs at 5’10”…
