2025 Draft Picks Ready For Leap 🐸

Jaguars' Hypothetical Alvin Kamara Trade Offer
—More ball production than most safeties; had 10 career interceptions, including six his junior year.
—Ideal size and physical play for strong safety and special teams.
—Eager to play toward the line of scrimmage.
WEAKNESSES
—Tape looks slow; needs to use shorter, choppier steps when breaking down.
—Tries to work around blockers too often.
—Lacks range and long speed.
—Poor footwork working to the ball; leads to unsquare tackles and extra yards.
OVERALL
Hawkins has the necessary size for the position but lacks the athletic ability in short-area and long speed. His six interceptions in 2018 put his name on draft boards, but he was unable to follow up with similar production in 2019. Hawkins profiles as a backup safety and will have to contribute on special teams.
GRADE: 55
PRO COMPARISON: Jordan Lucas/Gerod Holliman
