2019 NFL Draft: Top-50 prospects big board
5. OT Jonah Williams, Alabama – For teams in need of a starting left tackle, Williams can be the top prospect to call on. Williams is not as big as past NFL talent on the line out of Alabama, but he makes up for it with polished technique, excellent footwork, and the ability to get out in space in run blocking.
4. DT Rashan Gary, Michigan – Year after year after year, Michigan has a top-ranked group on defense and this season Gary leads the way. Michigan found ways to use his versatility as he lined up in every spot on the defensive line during his career. His athleticism is evident and his ceiling grows as he gets closer to the draft.
3. QB Justin Herbert, Oregon – The consensus #1 quarterback prospect according to many draft analyst, Herbert has slowly crept his way up the ladder over the years. Herbert as the arm talent and the ability to be effectively mobile and gash opposing defenses. Herbert’s ball placement skill is underrated as is his accuracy. A true candidate to go first overall.
2. EDGE Nick Bosa, Ohio State – He has the bloodlines first and foremost. He also has the likelihood of being a day one starter for whichever team drafts him. The hands of Bosa are always active and there is not a pass rusher in the country that has deep pass rushing tools such as Bosa. Once Bosa gets around the corner, watch out.
1. DT Ed Oliver, Houston – Hello, meet the best player in the 2019 draft class. A rare breed of size, speed, athleticism, versatility, and immense potential. Oliver plays with excellent bad level and is a freak of nature when pursing the ball. You have heard of franchise quarterbacks well Oliver is without a doubt a “franchise defensive tackle”.
