Along with OptimumScouting.com, Owner and Director of Scouting Eric Galko writes for a handful of other websites throughout the draft season. In an effort to put these articles under one roof, this weekly post will be all the articles of the previous week in one article.

 

Le’Raven Clark’s Tools Have Scouts Salivating, but Film Tells Different Story (Bleacher Report)

“Le’Raven Clark is more of a promising projection rather than an early NFL contributor. While NFL coaching and development away from the Texas Tech offense may do wonders, his film indicates it’ll take time before he’s a trustworthy left tackle.

But that may not stop scouts and NFL decision-makers from falling in love with the untapped potential that Clark offers, and potentially still drafting him in the first round.”

Why Myles Jack Should Be Considered the NFL Draft’s Top Prospect (Bleacher Report)

“But elite talents like Myles Jack completely change a defense, superseding perceived positional value.

Jack is more than a rangy run defender. He’s more than a potential stand-up pass-rusher. He’s more than a strong coverage linebacker. He’s a defense-changing talent that, despite his position, can be the catalyst for his defense’s success in all three major areas.”

 

Laremy Tunsil vs. Jalen Ramsey: Titans’ No. 1 NFL Draft pick presents tough call (Sporting News)

“Assessing positional value, immediate needs and long-term roster management, the Titans don’t have a clear choice to make. Tunsil gives them protection of their most valuable asset in Mariota, but potentially sacrifices a former first-round pick. Ramsey gives the defense a key piece in its building effort, but may not maximize positional value at No. 1 overall.

The Titans will consider both options, not just from a first-overall perspective, but how they can fill those needs later. Tennessee could, for example, draft Ramsey and find a right tackle in the second round, such as Germain Ifedi of Texas A&M, or draft Tunsil and scoop up a top cornerback like Tavon Young of Temple.”
