Good player, but not a game changer, and I only want an RB that has a game changing trait, or that presents as significant value

Went to Day 1 of @ShrineBowl practices today. A player that kept popping was Oregon State TE/FB/Athlete Jack Colletto.

Versatile fullbacks can unlock so much for creative offensive playcallers in the NFL. Colletto's athleticism, toughness and skillset are an intriguing combo.

I always appreciate you putting a list like this up. Been trying to watch some of the DBs for the upcoming draft and this narrows it down a bunch. Can I ask why Mazi Smith DT and Brenton Cox DE weren't included?

I think corner is, by far, the best position group in this class. Kinda sucks that we lack high end draft capital because, if we're able to resign Emmanuel Moseley, I think there are bigger needs to use our draft capital on.
I don't have any opinions on Cox, but I don't like Mazi. He was on my list earlier in the season, but I just don't see it with him. He is big, strong and athletic, but coming from Michigan were I expect him to have received good coaching, there is no reason he should be so ineffective vs the pass. You won't even need to pay too close attention to him when watching to see that he is consistently late, if not last off the ball, completely negating whatever athletic advantages he has over the lineman lined up across from him. That is his biggest problem, but add in short arms, an absence of a pass rush plan, and lacking lateral agility, and he is mostly just a space eater vs the run where his size and upper body strength can shine when catching the OL. At times he can use his vertical explosion and strength to push the pocket with power, but it's too few and far between and his lack of length hurts him when it's time to disengage from his blocker and finish the play.

Appreciate the info on Mazi. I'll be honest run stopping has shot up my wants this draft. But I'm sure there's DTs who can effectively stop the run and also give us something in the pass rush. As far as the DBs I've looked at I see 3 that from initial big boards could be there at the end of the 3rd round that I think are real players. Deonte Banks could contribute early, DJ Turner as a project long term guy and Tykee Smith as a Nickel who could push to start early.
