Scouting Report. 9. 31. Pick Analysis. QB. Stanford. TannerMcKee. player

I think this could be our first surprise of the draft. Tanner McKee is a big boy at 6’6 and is the replacement for a struggling Daniel Jones. I think they could also risk it here with the speedy athletic QB Anthony Richardson from Florida, but I think they want to run the big man offense Daboll ran in Buffalo.

The pocket presence will be a big deal in McKee’s development and I think that Daboll could play a huge factor in that development. The offense around the QB in New York seems to be there, now can they just put it all together.

player. Pick Analysis. TE. MichaelMayer. 10. 58. Scouting Report. Notre Dame

The Commanders need playmakers, and Mayer might be the scariest of the possible options. At 6’4 250, he is a big man who can make huge plays for any offense, just as he has done here at Notre Dame the past few seasons.

He is a mismatch at the next level as well and was their biggest playmaker last season. He would be a fantastic addition in Washington and will make the offense a legit force when healthy.

Pick Analysis. DB. South Carolina. 11. 55. Scouting Report. CamSmith. player

This guy could turn out to be a lockdown corner in this league for years to come and has proven to be a monster at the college level. This past season, he allowed 15 catches on 32 targets and only allowed multiple catches in 2 of the 11 games he played.

He could be yet another piece added to that very dangerous Pittsburgh defense, and many people in that organization would love him for years to come.

Northwestern. PeterSkoronski. Scouting Report. OL. 12. player. 60. Pick Analysis

At 6’4 294, Skoronski is not the biggest tackle in the class, however, he is by far the most consistent. The Vikings feel like they are another team that is so close to being a good team. The offensive line has been their biggest issue. I am sure their hope here is that Skoronski can fill a big need for that dynamic offense.
