Kylie Fitts NFL Draft 2018: Scouting Report for Chicago Bears' Pick

Matt MillerApr 28, 2018

POSITIVES

—Athletic mover with impressive hips in space and the feet to confuse pass-rushers.

—Able to roll through the edge and can shake blockers with head moves and change of direction skills.

Rams Seahawks Football

—Has well-developed tools with his hands and will work an inside move and counters like a spin or rip.

—High-motored against the run and will chase and pursue plays downfield and from the backside.

—Very little wasted motion.

NEGATIVES

—Will turn 24 years old during his rookie season.

—Injuries affected him throughout his college career, requiring scouts to look at 2015 tape to see his best football.

—Workout stud whose film doesn't show the same power and agility.

—Weak against the run for a 263-pounder. Has to better attack and anchor. Short arms affect this.

—Has a springy lower body but lacks power there.

OVERALL

Kylie Fitts' tape is really good when you can find games he was healthy for. Teams have to be cautious drafting a player who has missed so much time in the last two years and is already an older prospect. If he can stay on the field, Fitts' tools do project well for a third pass-rusher role.

GRADE: 5.70 (Round 5)

PRO PLAYER COMPARISON: Ryan Kerrigan, Washington Redskins
