Now they have an extra lottery ticket in case they see another player they’d like to make a ‘priority UDFA’ instead of risking the chance that said undrafted player chooses another team.We don’t know who Hurney has in mind for either of these picks, but trading down to acquire more players is probably a decent strategy.

He was a four-star recruit according to Rivals. Willis participated in the 2014 Under Armour All American Game. Willis committed to Florida, but transferred after his freshman season. Willis was ultra productive for the Miami Hurricanes in 2018. He led the ACC in tackles-for-loss with 18, which is also more than any other defensive tackle in FBS. Willis also posted four sacks https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/David-Mayo-Jersey , one fumble recovery, and two pass breakups during his final season. He was a second team All-American according to Sports Illustrated. Film reviewWillis primarily lined up at 3-technique for the Canes, but he showed enough versatility to potentially play as a 5-technique and nose tackle. Willis lives and dies with the swim move. He has the quickness and balance to use the swim move effectively. Especially on zone runs where the offensive line is moving laterally. Willis is able to elude the blocks with this move and force his way into the backfield. Willis uses the swim move, again, on this play. He has the snap explosion to create havoc in the backfield. Willis is lined up at 1-technique on this play https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/Devin-Funchess-Jersey , which isn’t an uncommon occurrence. His athleticism gives him an advantage over slower interior offensive linemen. Willis also utilizes his swim move when he is pass rushing. The quickness shows up again, but so does his effective hand use to swipe the guard away. His ability to shed blocks is underrated particularity as a pass rusher. The swim move gets Willis in trouble too. He still shows the initial burst, but Willis loses his leverage immediately by coming off too high. He has to play with better pad level if he wants to maximize his rush or run moves.Due to losing leverage, Willis can be susceptible to getting legally cut blocked. If he comes off low and uses his quickness to shoot the gap, then the chances of him getting cut blocked are low. Ultimately https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/Mario-Addison-Jersey , the long run isn’t his fault. However, he could have limited the gain if he stayed on his feet.As a pass rusher, Willis doesn’t show a propensity to use counters when his initial rush is stalled. This comes as a result of his poor pad level. He has to diversify his pass rush repertoire if he wants to become a complete defensive tackle. Willis will be an effective rotation defensive lineman for a team next season. He is at his best when he is attacking 1-gap as a 3-technique. The explosiveness, athleticism, and production will almost certainly intrigue most teams. Fit with CarolinaWillis reportedly has off field concerns Marquis Haynes Jersey , which will need to be vetted. It remains to be seen how strict Carolina will act in regards to character questions. Under Jerry Richardson and Dave Gettleman, Carolina did not take many chances. Willis projects best as a rotational 1-gapping defensive tackle in Ron Rivera’s scheme. He is versatile enough where he could alternate between 3-, 5-, and 1-technique. The initial burst and athleticism that he displays will be appealing for the Panthers. Willis’ pad level is a concern, which is why he shouldn’t be drafted until the 3rd round at the earliest. With his off field issues plus his weaknesses on the field https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/Torrey-Smith-Jersey , Willis shouldn’t be considered for the Panthers until late Day 2 or early Day 3.
