Tyrell Crosby, OT, Oregon

Height: 6-5
Weight: 320 pounds

If you’re looking for a darkhorse first round pick among this year’s Senior Bowl class, Tyrell Crosby is it.

How does a player hide out this well at a school like Oregon? Better question — how does a player wearing this loud of a uniform every week stay so quiet?

All kidding aside, Crosby might be the most well-rounded tackle in this year’s class. He showed phenomenal footwork as a pass protector, and excellent leverage. He is a mauler in the running game, getting his hands on defenders quickly and oftentimes planting them into the ground.

Why is he not getting as much first round talk? I have no clue.

That said, the Senior Bowl will be his chance to prove to scouts exactly what they’ve seen on tape for the past couple of seasons, that he is one of the best all-around tackles in college football.

Key Stat: Crosby has graded out as one of the top pass blocking and run blocking tackles by Pro Football Focus each of the past two seasons.
