David Edwards NFL Draft 2019: Scouting Report for Los Angeles Rams' Pick
STRENGTHS
—Immediate impact at right tackle. Three-year starter at Wisconsin.
—More agile than you would expect a right tackle from Wisconsin to be. Played quarterback and tight end before becoming a tackle.
—Fires off the ball to cross his opponent's face and reach the next level.
—Has played at a high level in multiple blocking schemes.
—Finishes off opponents when he gets his hands on them.
WEAKNESSES
—Shoulder injuries were a problem at Wisconsin.
—Still developing as a pass-blocker.
—A short kick-slide may keep him on the right side of the line in the NFL.
—Lacks anchor against physical pass-rushers
OVERALL
An experienced starter at Wisconsin, Edwards knows how to get the job done in the run game and will be close to a plug-and-play starter at right tackle. Teams might be concerned by injuries, which must be vetted, but Edwards' potential in the passing game and immediate skills as a run-blocker bring good value.
GRADE: 6.00 (ROUND 3 - FUTURE STARTER)
