Continuous thread: I& #39;m already starting 2021 draft work. Haven& #39;t finished (or really started) how I& #39;ll grade these players numerically, but I& #39;m doing initial notes on players I watch
Over the coming weeks/months, I& #39;ll likely continue updating this thread

First, Gregory Rousseau, defensive end out of Miami. Don& #39;t know measurables yet, so can& #39;t put that in. I wasn& #39;t super high on his 2019 tape, but monster run defender, and rushes super well inside
Comp: Jadeveon Clowney

Next: Dylan Moses, LB from Alabama
I freaking love Moses. Super smart player, set fronts for Saban, stack and shed, sound in gaps, never oversteps, range. Needs work in coverage (not a ton of experience), and injury questions, but starting MIKE LB in 2021
Comp: Darius Leonard

Marvin Wilson, DT, Florida State
The 2018 tape was rough, but he showed considerable improvement in 2019. Hand work was much better (rip and swim), and absolute monster in run game. Needs to shed weight and get better athletically, but raw potential is there
Comp: Derrick Brown

Shaun Wade - One of my immediate favorite players in the 2021 class. Super smart player, great size and frame, good footwork and patience.
Some concerns about athleticism currently, and he& #39;s probably not a full-time slot in pros. Still, great profile for boundary cornerback

Quincy Roche - I can& #39;t decide what I think about him. I like the speed profile, but small for the scheme, doesn& #39;t generate great power, and I don& #39;t think he sets a great edge
Get him to 3rd down, and he& #39;ll be very good, but some concerns for me about ability to play all 3 downs

Nick Bolton, LB, Missouri
I& #39;m sure I have many Missouri fans for followers, and I& #39;ll say, do like him a lot. Makes a ton of sense at WILL for 2021 if KC is looking for one
Needs some tightening up in skills, but very good athlete. Reminds me a lot of Devin Bush last year

Tyler Shelvin, NT, LSU
Shelvin is your typical 1 technique. Strong hands, great anchor, hard to move in run game. Won& #39;t provide much of anything as pass rusher, and not a fantastic athlete, but if you& #39;re looking for a Pennel replacement in 2021, Shelvin makes sense

Jabril Cox, LB, NDSU/LSU
I loved Cox& #39;s tape. Exceptional in coverage, great athlete. Great in man coverage, carries seam, transitions around field well. Even played in slot
Issue is that he didn& #39;t have a ton of reps in the box, and I didn& #39;t see any stack and shed out of him

Micah Parsons, LB, Penn St
He& #39;s very good. High IQ, excellent in run game. Size to stack and shed, speed to slip. Great tackler, range, covers underneath well, robs routes
I don& #39;t think he& #39;s an amazing athlete, and in coverage, he wasn& #39;t asked to play man or run very much.

Paddy Fisher, LB, Northwestern
Late Day 2-Day 3 guy, but typical LB from the 80s. Big, burly, smart. Stack and shed, great tackler. Decent covering underneath
Bad athlete, slow transitions, doesn& #39;t have range, not explosive
If KC looking for big MIKE on Day 2-3, Fisher is that

Charles Snowden, LB, Virginia
Natural SAM LB. Can set the edge, drop into intermediate zones, some rush moves off the edge. Good hands, good burst for pass rusher. Can kick inside on 3rd down. High IQ
Doesn& #39;t play with power, and stiff with transitions. Won& #39;t do much in cov.

Azeez Ojulari, DE, Georgia
I really like Ojulari. Quick first step, burst, wins well up arc. I didn& #39;t see him play the edge like Spags teaches, but has different ways to dominate run game, including spilling double teams. Should easily learn. Has legitimate pass rush moves

Carlos Basham Jr., DE, Wake Forest
Favorite edge I& #39;ve watched so far. Long, athletic, high motor. Dominant in run game, can set edge, spill quickly, chase from backside. Instantly helps on Day 1
Pass rush wise, he had some developed moves, but needs more refinement. Play inside

Aidan Hutchinson, DE, Michigan
A lot to like. Good athletic profile, great size. Good in run game, really good rushing inside
My main thing was, I was disappointed in his reps rushing off edge, especially against NFL guys (Wirfs, Wells, Alaric Jackson, Alex Leatherwood).
