JK Scott NFL Draft 2018: Scouting Report for Green Bay Packers' Pick

POSITIVES

—Was the kickoff specialist and punter for Alabama.

—Four-year starter in the SEC.

—Consistently pins opponents inside the 20 and can get hot putting them inside the 10.

—Only had two punts blocked in four seasons.

—Does a great job pinning teams deep, but his kicks rarely resulted in touchbacks.

NEGATIVES

—Special teams coaches told B/R that Scott is a little slow and needs to speed up his process.

—Benefited from excellent Alabama coverage teams that made his stats look better.

—Won't handle kickoffs in the NFL outside of emergencies due to average leg strength.

OVERALL

Scott is a good punter with the consistency and accuracy to impress teams. The fact that he has a draftable grade at all speaks to his value and talent. Warm-weather teams might prefer him given his lack of a booming leg, but Scott will be an asset in the pros.

GRADE: 5.60 (Round 6)

PRO COMPARISON: Dustin Colquitt, Kansas City Chiefs
