POSITIVES

— Solid size with good arm length for a 4i- to 5-technique defensive end.

— Good athlete overall who tested well at the NFL combine, earning a 9.58 RAS as a defensive lineman.

— Impressive quickness and acceleration off the line of scrimmage to get penetration with his get-off.

— Has the strength to set the edge or hold his ground against base blocks as a run defender if his pad level becomes more consistent.

— Can get extension and shed blocks when he keeps his hands tight.

— Flashed a decent chop move as a pass-rusher to knock the offensive lineman's outside hand down.

NEGATIVES

— Minimal production overall with 39 total tackles in 37 career games, including 19 tackles in 14 games last season.

— Often very passive with his hands in both phases of the game, allowing offensive linemen to make the first contact and ending up chest-to-chest frequently.

— Frequently plays with high pad level. Offensive linemen with good leverage will push him out of his gap, and he struggles to sink his hips to anchor against down blocks.

— Poor pass-rush plan and outside of the occasional chop move mentioned above. Doesn't have a go-to pass-rush move that he can win with in the NFL.

NOTES

— Born June 26, 2003

— 4-star recruit in the 2021 class, per 247Sports

— Injuries: 2023 (foot, had surgery and missed 6 games)

OVERALL

Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins has an intriguing combination of size, strength and athleticism, giving him some untapped potential. He has an impressive get-off to potentially be a good gap-shooter and would be a good fit as a 4i-technique in odd fronts.

However, Ingram-Dawkins wasn't productive at Georgia and is a major project. His technique needs a lot of work—most notably his use of hands—to unlock the potential he showed as a highly rated recruit coming out of high school.

The former Bulldog is worth taking a flier on in the later rounds of the draft, but he might need to spend a year or two on the practice squad before he can be a significant contributor in an NFL defensive line rotation.

GRADE: 5.9 (Backup/Draftable — 6th-7th Round)
