Offensively
a trio of prospects can be found on the offensive line. There will be a variety
of opinions leading up to the draft on Tony Ugoh a finesse lineman with
solid size. Quick off the snap, Ugoh is a terrific position blocker who makes
exceptional use of angles, sealing defenders from the action. Using all his
assets to his advantage, Ugoh is not a mauler and rarely finishes blocks. A
college tackle, he may have a home at guard in a zone blocking system for an NFL
team. Stephen Parker offers better size and the powerful guard turns
defenders off the ball. Marginally athletic, Parker does not play with good
balance and is best in confined quarters. Junior Robert Felton is another
small area blocker with minimal ability in motion. Offering the best size of the
three, Felton is a solid future prospect. Receiver Marcus Monk is another
underclassmen on the radar screen. Possessing outstanding size, Monk also offers
soft hands and can be devastating red zone target. Not afraid to go up in a
crowd for the difficult reception, he is the prototypical possession wide out
for the next level. Tight end Mason Templeton offers lineman type size
yet is a solid pass catcher. Effective as a blocker, the junior could find a
home as a second tight end in the NFL.
Defensively
the Razorback prospects are undersized and hard-working. Tackle Keith Jackson
is a bowling ball in the middle of the line and a first move defender who
could be used as a three technique lineman. Marcus Harrison has better
size and fights hard in the middle of the field. Quick off the snap Harris plays
with leverage and is constantly doubled by opponents. Only a junior, he offers a
lot of potential. Linebacker Sam Olajubutu is constantly around the
action making positive plays. Fluid moving laterally, he has a burst speed and
stands out in coverage. Measuring barely 5-feet-9-inches Olajubutu is a nickel
linebacker/special teams player who may get looks at safety. Cornerback Darius Vinnett flashes shut down skills but is another small prospect with
possibility as a dime back at the next level.
