Viewing: FS1Location: Rose Bowl - Pasadena, CaliforniaRoster: National and American team rostersAmerican Coach: Chuck PaganoNational Coach: Mike Tice Greg ValerioJamell Garcia-Williams, Edge, No. 99 - UABHeight: 6072 | Weight: 249 | 40 time: 4.902018 Stats: 9.5 sacks, 43 tackles, 15.5 tackles for loss, 4 pass deflections, and 1 fumble recoveryJamell Garcia-Williams is the type of prospect you find at the end of the draft where impressive measurables and athleticism could turn into a diamond in the rough. At nearly 6-foot-8-inches Garcia-Williams is an imposing opponent on the field with vines for limbs and a well built edge defender that is very athletic and nimble (great balance) for a man his size with good speed and great foot quickness. Although he is still developing his game (one year collegiate starter), Garcia-Williams comes from NFL bloodlines (father played for the Pittsburgh Steelers and older brother currently plays for the Denver Broncos) and displays a high football IQ that marries well with his athleticism and size. Garcia-Williams shows quick burst off the line, uses hands very well and is a penetrating disruptive force in the backfield with great speed off the edge, good conversion from speed to power, and takes full advantage of his length and body control hitting with explosion (nice closing speed). A nose for the football, Garcia-Williams displays a good ability to play front-side blocks at the point of attack with solid functional strength (will need to further develop) and the quickness and fluidity to disengage (takes advantage of his length but needs more consistency). Moreover, he shows a good ability to defend against back-side blocks maneuvering through the trash with impressive quickness and closing speed. An intelligent prospect that has shown the capacity to improve throughout the season, Garcia-Williams’ arrow will continue to rise, and with further coaching improving his technique and his NFL ready size, length, and athleticism, the ceiling will inevitably be high for the young prospect.Hjalte Froholdt http://www.49erslockerroom.com/authentic-kwon-alexander-jersey , OG/C, No. 51 - ArkansasHeight: 6044 | Weight: 306 | 40 time: 5.26Hjalte Froholdt was introduced to football his sophomore year of high school as a foreign exchange student from Svendborg, Denmark. It was love at first sight, as Froholdt embraced the sport and natural talent kicked in. Making the transition from defensive line to the offensive side of the ball during his sophomore year at Arkansas, Froholdt is still relatively new to the position, and despite arriving a bit late to the party, he has shown the capacity to improve and his willingness to learn and continue to grow is a testament to his hard work and flourishing leadership skills. Froholdt displays a great combination of size, strength, toughness, football instincts, improving awareness, and athleticism. An intelligent anchor on the offensive line, Froholdt showcases great foot agility moving laterally after the snap, active and strong hands (needs more pop), good strength to drive defenders sealing them away from the action and opening holes finishing blocks (inconsistent) displaying excellent movement reaching the second level. Moreover, Froholdt showcases solid quickness, sound athletic ability and somewhat efficient technique (flashes of terrific technique), anchors the pocket extremely well setting a quality base for the quarterback to climb, and nice balance when anchoring in pass protection. Functional strength and the ability to play with more physicality is needed at the next level. Shows the versatility to play guard and center.Alex EisenE.J. Ejiya, LB, No. 22 (American Team) - North TexasHeight: 6’3” | Weight: 231 | Projected 40: 4.692018 Stats: 121 Tackles, 25.5 tackles for a loss, 9 sacks, 1 forced fumbleE.J. Ejiya has had a successful and productive senior season. A high-volume tackler who wraps his opponents quickly to the ground. Has good size for his position Nick Bosa Jersey White , and the measurebales that scouts and evaluators seek at the pro level. Has demonstrated his abilities to defend against the run, and has the range to defend in pass coverage. Plays with the speed and aggressive style of a linebacker/safety hybrid. These types of prospects are being sought more and more by scouts and evaluators in the pass-happy NFL. Against a Power 5 and SEC opponent in Arkansas, Ejiya led all tacklers with twelve on the afternoon and was the highest graded linebacker in the nation in Week 3 (85.5 – Pro Football Focus). His primary position at North Texas has been at the WILL linebacker in their 3-3-5 system. His sideline to sideline speed are amongst his best traits and his ability to make plays over the top of the line of scrimmage offer him numerous opportunities to make a positive impact. Described as being very coachable with the will to learn more. Ejiya’s arrow is pointing up.Nico Evans, RB, No. 22 - WyomingHeight: 5’9” | Weight: 211 | Projected 40: 4.482018 Stats: 1,325 yards, 8 touchdowns, 66 yards receiving, 1 touchdown.Nico Evans is a bruising running back for the Wyoming Cowboys. Evans does an efficient job of running between the tackles on many of his carriers. Evans has demonstrated his ability to be patient, while following his blockers and running through open holes and gaps along the line of scrimmage. The senior has had some big games this season for the Cowboys including a 187-yard performance and 58-yard score. Evans can be shifty on the field as he looks to evade oncoming opponents on the defense. Evans will take care of the football, and has strong, reliable hands. Evans is not a major receiving threat but has demonstrated his ability to catch the football when called upon. Evans is not getting a whole lot of national media attention playing at Wyoming, however he could be a good value pick on day three of the NFL draft to add more competition and roster depth. Pro Football Focus released their QB Annual last week, and you know what that means. It’s time to scour the pages of the 341-page tome for golden nuggets of information that tell us more about Nick Mullens than any crowd-noise track ever could. Before you dig in to the takeaways, I highly recommend reading Steve Palazzolo and Sam Monson’s fantastic primer detailing the mechanics PFF’s grading system as it pertains to quarterbacks. It’s one of the most clear explanations of what goes into grading and it defines terms used throughout the recap. Nick Mullens plays it safer than Alex SmithPart of the value of the QB Annual is the statistical rigor they apply to quarterback analytics. Through their evaluation we learn that certain statistics are fairly stable year to year, meaning they are more likely to predict future performance. However, others serve a more descriptive purpose. They merely describe what happened in a given game, or year, but aren’t likely to remain consistent year to year. A quarterback’s percentage of negatively graded throws is one of those predictive metrics. Sorry Mitchell Trubisky fans, but if your quarterback has a penchant for making poor throws that behavior isn’t likely to change dramatically from year to year. Nick Mullens ranked 11th in negative play rate out of thirty-five qualifying quarterbacks. If you look specifically at turnover-worthy plays, the plays to which PFF assigns the worst grades, Mullens ranks 15th. Mullens avoids turnover worthy plays at roughly the same rate as Nick Foles, Marcus Mariota, and Baker Mayfield. Turnover worthy plays result in turnovers about 50% of the time Laken Tomlinson Jersey , so being in the “safe” category is a plus for Mullens. Mullens isn’t attempting, or executing, many difficult throwsAvoiding negative plays is only part of the recipe for successful quarterbacking. A good quarterback also executes on difficult NFL throws. Generally speaking, those are throws that have excellent ball location and timing. They are also thrown farther down field, typically into a tight window.The first problem for Mullens is that he doesn’t really make many downfield throws. On first and second read throws, which make up the vast majority of NFL throws for a quarterback, Mullens’ average depth of target was 9.15 yards. That’s 1.65 yards below NFL average for that subset of throws. Mullens also ranked dead last in big time throw percentage.Mullens ball location also left something to be desired in 2018. On intermediate throws, the money throws in Kyle Shanahan’s offense, Mullens accuracy was 8.5 percentage points below NFL average. When it came to throwing into tight windows Mullens didn’t fare much better. When a defender was in within a step of the receiver, Mullens’ accuracy rate was over 21 percentage points below average. But if Mullens was relatively inaccurate, how did he amass those gaudy yardage totals? Some of it was game script, but a large piece of that was Kyle Shanahan’s scheme. 52 percent of Mullens throws were to open receivers, a relatively easy throw for an NFL quarterback. And even with those open looks, only two quarterbacks had more catchable inaccurate passes than Mullens — meaning his receivers often helped mask some of Mullens’ inaccuracies. Mullens struggles outside of structureMullens played his best football within the cozy structure of Kyle Shanahan’s offense. The second-year quarterback ranked 15th in the NFL in PFF grade from a clean pocket, which is a couple spots better than Matt Ryan. Mullens also succeeded when throwing the ball quickly. Mullens’ 102.3 quarterback rating on throws made in 2.5 seconds or less compares favorably to Kirk Cousins. But when things started to fall apart, so did Mullens. On throws that extended past 2.6 seconds Mullens’ passer rating drops to 76.5. But perhaps more telling, his expected points added (EPA) per play plummets to-.11. That’s right — Mullens effectively takes points off the board when he takes longer than 2.6 seconds to throw the ball. And if Mullens is forced to scramble due to pressure things get even worse. He only completes one of every five passes, a rate well below average. And his expected points “added” plummets to -.48. The NFL average EPA on scramble drill plays is .03.Nick Mullens is by no means ready to take over the starting role for an NFL team. Sub-optimal accuracy and an inability to execute difficult throws limits his effectiveness. If anything, the key takeaway from his chapter should be “Kyle Shanahan is amazing.” But Mullens has proven that, at times, he can be a moderately effective shepherd for Shanahan’s offense, and he’s good at avoiding disaster. This is exactly why he’s earned a spot competing for the backup role in 2019.
