Toughness: 93 + 4 = 97
Commentary
At 1.1 spot is not good to see skew downs, especially on the attributes that made the player special. Losing 1 awareness and 2 tha impacts on his learning curve specially as can’t receive training camp, but he still has a cannon arm with 95 thp, excellent awr of 73 and solid tha of 75. If he receives mentorship that looks like he’ll get with Saints legend and SB champion David Greene. Trubisky will be very successful, the only question remains around him is the injury, the +4 on toughness for get him at 97 gotta help him a lot for prevent long time injuries.

Kick return: 18 + 4 = 22
Commentary
James Conner lost 1 point of speed, given his size and power shouldn’t affect him, talking about power he got + 3 on strength making him the most powerful HB of the league, his agility that was one of the big concerns went up by 2, while his acceleration went down by 1. Awr went up by one and his break tackle, his most progressed attribute went down by 4, a bad hit but nothing that can’t be recover with progression. Conner is a wrecking ball and the + 3 str were special, he isn’t the most polished HB all around, but is the number #1 when it comes to beat defensed with brute force. As mentioned before, his injury seems as a factor to have on mind

Kick return: 5 = 5
Commentary
Mike Williams skewing up 1 point at speed consolidate his status as the #1 WR on this draft, that guarantee his status as 99 spd – 99 acc WR after rookie progression and with 75 k AP investment that I’m sure Raiders (Brad) will apply to him, he also became training camp eligible so will receive + 2 catch and + 1 awr , his only skew down on -2 awr could’ve helped to keep him on 79 ovr, so everything on the skew of Mike Williams is positive, A+ pick for Raiders

Run Block: 62 – 2 = 60
Kick return:74 + 4 = 78
Commentary
Kenny Golladay kept his 96 speed which the same as Mike Williams with 75k AP, he can be 99 spd, he also skewed up 2 points in acc that guarantees the 99 acc. He stays the same on all the secondary attributes that keep him as a complete bully on the position, he’s very strong, with amazing jump of 97 and with good block. His 81 ovr means he can’t receive TC so the – 1 on awr and -1 on catch set him as borderline raw but we’ve seen a LOT of WR being successful with worse attributes there, starter day 1 that should progress with no problems.

Commentary
When a player has the pre skew attributes JuJu had and doesn’t skew down, are excellent news, he had no way of skew up on any physical attribute as he was max 99. Keeping it this way, allow him to be max spd – agi – acc since day one and without investment of AP. His awr of 54 is somehow low but his 84 catch are elite. Only cause Williams and Golladay are 6”4 but Ju-Ju might end being the best WR of this class, excellent pick by Redskins. Interesting to see if he return some kicks, has potential there.

Commentary
What a extraordinary skew, when see high speed on a position like TE, history shows often skew down, and many times I do PW expecting a miracle. Based on some intel I gathered Kittle went up to 94 speed on his PW, for finally end where he started at 92 speed, this turn him into the fastest TE of the league, always nice to have the fastest at something. His agility skewed up + 4 something that fix one of his biggest flaws, and his acceleration stayed at 84. He also skewed up + 1 on pbk and + 3 rbk, something that fix his other flaw the block skills, finally he got + 2 on catch and – 1 awr keeping him as a top target for pass game. He was draft by Buccs, a team with premium QB and scheme likes to involve TE, don’t be surprise if he becomes OROY

Commentary
He was tagged as an stud on the previous version of the article, and the skew just confirm it, he took -4 on speed, that could be awful, but he’s still 69 spd, probably don’t need more than that, but he got + 2 str, fixing his only flaw, and + 4 on acc, an attribute that is very important for the position and with 84 he’s elite premium, also gained + 1 agility. Got – 1 awr and block skills got + and – 2 which neutralize it. He’s TC eligible so he can gain + 1 strenght and increase that awr and block skills, Robinson will be an elite player and Dolphins got a premium player for the next 10 – 12 seasons.

Commentary
Sam Tevi was going to be a stud no matter how skew went, but he lost 4 speed, 1 agility and 1 acceleration, while kept the max strength. I’m a believer that at OL is very much the same to be 97 than 99 as rookie, as will get the bonus anyway. His block skills balance with -1 pbk and + 2 rbk. His awareness stays the same at 63, a decent number for a rookie. Tevi joins a team with a GM expert on OL, and a team like rushing the ball, so he’ll be a key player for Seahawks

Commentary
Boles went up + 3 on speed, that takes him from borderline range now to elite range, at 68 is very similar than the other 2 players we just saw. Bolles has elite block skills and only skewed down -1 on pass block, still a very high 86 – 82 combo, his acceleration took a hit of -3 but as started with impressive 87, 84 is premium. The big question around Bolles i think was always the strength, he didn’t go up or down stayed at 91, the excellent news for Broncos is that Bolles is 79 ovr, so he can attend training camp and win + 1 str on the process, while add more awr and block.

Commentary
Roderick Johnson lost 1 speed, 1 agility and – 4 acceleration while gained + 2 str. Even with those skew downs he remains on the stud level, and being only 21 yo he has a very succesfull career ahead him. His awr stayed at 78, which gotta be one of the smartest players as rookie in league history, his low block skills remained almost the same but got + 1 pbk. Roderick will have time for develop those blocks while progress, and he could attend training camp for help on that goal

Commentary
Roullier speed skewed up + 3, at 66 he’s a very fast center, lost – 2 on strength something that isn’t nice but still will be on the 96 – 97 range, after TC and bonus. Acceleration took a hit of -3 but remains on a high level of 78. Awr saw a + 2 for a nice 62 and block skills stayed almost the same + 1 pbk and – 2 rbk. For a late 3rd round pick, that + 3 on speed makes him a very interesting player and a prospect that can grow up much to become an starter.

Commentary
Myles Garrett took some hard skews, - 2 on speed – 2 on acceleration and – 1 on strength takes away some of the special ability on the athletic size, he is still above average but for a player that was taken 1.2 is not what want to see. I suspect he gotta receive + 2 speed via AP and take him to 86 speed. Garrett was a prospect with 2 upsides, the physical aspect went down but he remains smart with 67 awr and got + 1 tackle that takes him to 77. Being only 21 yo, he’ll become one of the most progressed players at the position, and should perform well, Dwight Freeney remains as the comparison for him.

Commentary
I was very high on Allen on my previous analysis and the skew only increase my hype for this player, Allen will be really special and was an excellent pick for the Ravens at this spot. He’s extremely smart with 70 awr – 80 tak, his speed went up by 1 point so he’s at 80, that speed was the reason he wasn’t that high at many draft boards, so getting +1 was huge. His agility and acceleration stay the same at 81 and 87 respectively. Nothing much to add, LOVE the pick

Commentary
This skew was logical given how much he fall, I did PW him so also was aware of the drop, but it was worth a shot to see if the speed went up. – 4 speed, - 2 strength, - 2 agility and – 2 acceleration takes away the sturdiness of Godchaux, yet, he is still an excellent prospect for 3-4 DE, he can progress his str with TC and rookie – sophomore bonus, and his speed even if not great should be enough for play as DE, he got + 1 awr and + 1 tackle, and being only 21 yo he can progress them to above average numbers. For the spot Godchaux is a solid project, look at him and comparing him from draft numbers to post skew, definitely 2 different player but the potential of Godchaux is there.

Commentary
TJ Watt is an absolute stud, he went up + 2 on speed and + 1 on agility, took -1 on strength and acceleration. He’s a very well round player, doesn’t have a clear flaw, solid awareness and tackle for a rookie, and being 21 yo he has a lot of time for progress. His 85 speed was risky to draft but he went up to 87 solidifying the pick and confirm that he’s a stud and one of the best OLB of the league.

Commentary
If ignore the size of Milano, he’s a complete stud, he skewed up + 2 on speed, + 2 on strength – 3 on agility and – 1 on acceleration, with 96 acceleration, losing 1 is like take a bucket of water from the sea. 95 acceleration is incredible for a linebacker, he’s basically a safety playing as outside linebacker. I do think that Milano has an incredible potential, and was a steal at the last pick of 1.32, on the previous articles made a bigger analysis of position so go and read in case haven’t. Meanwhile, the skew was very positive for Milano and convert him in one of the best linebackers of the league, attribute wise

Commentary
Somehow was logic to think the skew went up on PW, when was draft at 1st round, his original speed of 84 was low, but he gets + 2 and take him to a good level of athleticism specially for a player with his body frame. His strength stays the same at 83, somehow I was thinking about a comparison, and even if Hightower seemed as a good comparison, he didn’t have the strength so I think I’ll choose Rolando McClain, he’ll be a more athletic and more raw version of McClain, the 4 agility was great for take him up to elite agility and acceleration that took – 2 but remains extremely elite.

Commentary
One of the best prospects of the class, took an unfortunate skew on speed, but with the AP investment instead be 99 spd, he’ll be 98 spd, his agility increased by 1 and will end at 96 after bonus, while acceleration will be at 99. Humphrey value came from size + age + awr. So even with the skew down his potential and value remain pretty much the same. Raiders currently have QB Hackenberg that likely will be the mentor player, so Humphrey should start day 1 for keep his high awr benefit, and could receive mentor points next season.

Commentary
Chargers scouts made their homework, when White went 1.13 it was clear the PW was good, he gained + 2 speed for get 99, it wasn’t completely needed, could’ve been 98 and still get the rookie boost, but White is a 100% guarantee 99 spd – 99 acc, those kind of corners always very valuable, the only negative skew were -2 on agi, which imo won’t play a factor as is already on 96. He has a solid awr of 62 and I believe he’s a candidate for being mentor by Chargers and become into their future CB #1. Excellent prospect

Commentary
Hardee took some considerable skew downs, given how athletic he was on the pre – skew he still has a margin to manage, but that’ll cost some AP to Jaguars for take him to the next level, something considerable on the skew is the awr hit, went from 57 to 55, both are low but the second one requires more work, also as he’s too athletic he’s not eligible for TC so needs to start day 1 for Jaguars if want to progress him. Mentoring him is also a real possibility and probably something going to happen, he’s so studly that even the negative skew doesn’t take away his high potential.

Commentary
Hard to tell if the skew is good or bad, he lost 1 point in agility and acceleration, also took – 2 on awareness, but that’ll be progress soon, and thanks to that he’s TC eligible so somehow balanced, on the contrary he got an extra speed, that in my opinion is a better business, so even if quantity doesn’t reflect it, the quality of the attribute I think make it a positive skew, nothing crazy, and very balanced skew but Hooker stays exactly as the kind of player was expect. Being only 21 yo, and being drafted by one of the GM is an expert developing Safeties, he’ll be one of the top players in some seasons.

Commentary
I think given all the hype and expectations around Jackson is a disappointment to see him going down 2 on speed, and 4 on strength. He keeps the 99 acceleration, and will recover his already high agility. He was so good pre-skew, that is impossible that any drop takes him off the tag of top player with elite potential, he’s a stud, but it would’ve been cool to see what a 99 spd safety can do and now that seems as a waste opportunity, he’ll join a select group of safeties, but considering some have had this speed but being taller, Jackson will be special but not the definitive safety.
