Derrick Brown – Senior – Defensive Tackle. You know who he is. Everyone does. He’s big, he’s bad, he’s a monster. Brown is the best run stopper in this year’s draft. He’s physical and strong. NFL teams have their eyes on him but he’ll only be available for the first few picks. He’s more than likely going to be a top 10 pick.

Draft Projections – around the 7th to 9th pick in the first round.
Teams interested – Jacksonville, Carolina, Arizona, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New York, and Denver.
His strengths – Brown is a giant and he’s fantastic at dominating any offensive lineman and even breaking through double teams.
His weaknesses – Just about the only thing he lacks is his dynamic pass rush ability. He’s not great at using his arms to swipe past the offensive line.
NFL Comparison – I’d compare Brown to a young Ndamukong Suh.
Noah Igbinoghene – Junior – Cornerback. Noah Igbinoghene started his freshman year as a wide receiver but played corner back in his last two years of college. He’s a great defender which means his development traits will stand out to NFL teams. He’s also a great kick returner. Igbinoghene’s draft stock has been rising recently. He appeared in the first round at #25 on one of CBS’s recent mock drafts.

Draft Projections – around the 27th pick of the first round to early second round.
Teams interested – San Francisco, Kansas City, Minnesota, Dallas, Philidelphia
His strengths – He has a nice bundle of speed, and his explosiveness and length provides him to be an elite defender.
His weaknesses – It’s hard to find a weakness in his play but maybe his aggressiveness could be better.
NFL Comparison – Definitely compares to Kareem Jackson.
Marlon Davidson – Senior – Defensive End. If anyone deserves to be a first round pick, it’s Marlon Davidson. His work ethic and high off ball explosiveness is a valuable asset for NFL Teams to have. He thrives to make a play every down. His speed is also something to note. As well as his position flexibility.

Draft Projections – Around the 29th pick of the first round to early second round.
Teams interested – Seattle, Green Bay, Kansas City, New England, Baltimore, and Tennessee.
His Strengths – high explosiveness and excellent hands and pass rush ability. Speed is also a factor.
His Weaknesses – sometimes Davidson lacks the push up the middle and the ability to split the gaps.
NFL Comparison – Compares to Matthew Judon.
Prince Tega Wanogho – Senior – Offensive Tackle. A Nigerian athlete, Prince Tega Wanogho brought much needed offensive line production to Auburn athletics. He’s big (6’7, 305), athletic, and his footwork is phenomenal. He’s appeared in a few first round mock drafts but none recently. But teams will have their eyes on him looking into day two.

Draft Projections – Probably mid-second round to late second round or if he slides, early third round.
Teams interested – Seattle, Los Angeles Chargers, Carolina, Miami, Tampa Bay, Jacksonville, Houston, Green Bay, Tennessee, Las Vegas, Indianapolis, Minnesota, Washington, Baltimore and Philadelphia.
His Strengths – Quick footwork. Sturdy pass blocker. He has big hands and can take on most any pass rushers in the SEC.
His Weaknesses – Has a hard time getting low before the defender does. But that’s common for young offensive linemen. And besides Wanogho is very tall which makes it harder for him to claim to low ground.
NFL Comparison – TJ Clemmings looks nearly identical to Wanogho when he plays.
Javaris Davis – Senior – Cornerback. Javaris Davis is one of the biggest potential gems in Auburn’s offense. He has some family members that played in the NFL. Vernon Davis is one of them. Javaris Davis is fast and he uses his hands a lot. He is a little undersized but we’ve seen players that fit Davis’ description do well at the next level.

Draft Projections – sixth round at the latest probably and the fifth round is probably where he’ll go.
Teams interested – New York Jets, Miami, New England, Detroit, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Dallas, New York Giants, Atlanta, and Los Angeles Rams.
His Strengths – Great speed and athleticism. Tight coverage in man-to-man defense.
His Weaknesses – Davis sometimes lacks the ability to catch up with the receiver after he’s beat. Also, his size isn’t that great at 5’8.
NFL Comparison – Jonathan Jones, a former Auburn corner is very similar to Davis.
Nick Coe – Junior – Defensive Line. Nick Coe didn’t see the year he’d hoped for in 2019. Considering he was preseason all-SEC and racked up very few stats, is not good. But he’s still talented and there’s still film of his electric 2018 season so he’s gonna draw some attention. Coe can play defensive end, outside linebacker, defensive tack, and maybe even nose tackle. He’s very flexible to fill any position.

Draft Projections – Probably third round or fourth round as of right now.
Teams interested – Jacksonville, Seattle, Los Angeles Rams, Green Bay, New England, Dallas, Indianapolis, Baltimore, Atlanta, Carolina, Los Angeles Chargers and Las Vegas.
His Strengths – Long frame and decent pass rush skills. Good use of hands. Lot’s of potential.
His Weaknesses – Lacks consistency. Needs more off ball exoplosiveness to become elite.
NFL Comparison – Robert Quinn
Jack Driscoll – Senior – Offensive Tackle. Jack Driscoll was a big help in the offensive line for Auburn the past two seasons. His firmness and patients is really good. Driscoll really wants a chance to play in the NFL and if he works at it and everything falls into place how it needs to, I think he’ll get that chance.

Draft Projections – At the highest probably late 5th round. It’s most likely he goes mid-sixth round.
Teams interested – Jacksonville, Tennessee, Cleveland, Detroit, Tampa Bay and more.
His Strengths – Like I said, he’s got some good firmness and good footwork. Also he redirects nicely.
His Weaknesses – Lacks length and power. If he was bigger and more powerful, we might be looking at a second round pick here.
NFL Comparison – Alex Mack is a good fit.

Marquel Harrell – Senior – Offensive Tackle. Marquel Harrell is a big prospect coming out of Auburn. The senior lineman has good size at 6’3, 309 lbs. I like his all around blocking. There’s not much to talk about Harrell but he’s a prospect I think a few teams are interested in him.
Draft Projections – Seventh round to undrafted.
Teams interested – Just a few teams here and there. I don’t really know which teams.
His Strengths – Harrell’s run blocking is good.
His Weaknesses – Lacks elite quickness.
Player Comparison – Greg Robinson, a former Auburn tackle.
Daniel Thomas – Senior – Safety. Daniel Thomas is probably one of the underrated prospects from Auburn. The safety is hard hitting, aware of coverage and a good open field tackler. He’s on the outside of the draft looking in but if teams take a chance on him, I don’t think they’ll regret it.

Draft Projections – If he’s lucky, late seventh round. But he probably won’t be drafted.
Teams interested – Miami, Jacksonville, Tampa Bay, Atlanta, Minnesota and Las Vegas.
His Strengths – Hard hitting and great open field tackling. Decent coverage too.
His Weaknesses – Struggles against elite quarterbacks in tough environments.
NFL Comparison – Landon Collins
Jeremiah Dinson – Senior – Safety. A key in Auburn’s defense, Jeremiah Dinson was a great safety accompanying Daniel Thomas. Dinson has several similar attributes as Thomas. Great open field tackling and nice awareness. If Thomas can get a shot, Dinson will too. They’re very similar in playing styles and attributes.

Draft Projections – Pretty much the same as Thomas’, seventh round to undrafted.
Teams interested – Miami, Jacksonville, Cleveland, Las Vegas, Los Angeles Rams and Carolina.
His Strengths – Nice steady speed and great open field tackling.
His Weakness – Struggles in some coverage plays.
NFL Comparison – Mike Adams
Kam Martin – Senior – Running back. Kam Martin could’ve transferred to somewhere like Liberty or Tulane to boost his NFL chances. But he didn’t. He chose to stay loyal through it all. And he deserves so much respect for that. He’s got some good play making abilities in his pocket.

Draft Projections – Unfortunately, probably undrafted.
Teams interested – unknown
His Strengths – Martin’s got a nice little jitter to him. As my grandmother said after she watched him as a freshman, “he’s just like a little water bug.”
His Weaknesses – Doesn’t posses that break away speed.
NFL Comparison – Darren Sproles
Arryn Siposs – Sophomore – Punter. An Australian native, Arryn Siposs had some nice moments on the Plains. Perhaps his best was not a kicking moment. Siposs lined up in an odd formation that won Auburn the game vs Alabama last year. Siposs has a unique spin on the ball when he punts.

Draft Projections – Definitely undrafted but I think he’ll get a shot on a practice squad.
Teams interested – unknown
His Strengths – Like I said, he puts a somewhat awkward spin on the ball which increases the chances of a muffed catch.
His Weaknesses – Siposs isn’t a distance punter.
NFL Comparison – N/A

Wow, I love your attention to details the average fan misses, Camden. War Eagle!
