Draft Profile: Josh Allen (Defensive End, Kentucky)

0

Defensive End, Kentucky

6’4”

258 pounds

Overview:
Josh Allen is a senior at Kentucky. He is projected to get picked in the top 4 by most NFL mock drafts. While the Buccaneers cannot afford to trade up in order to acquire him due to the many holes this team needs to fill, Licht should pull the trigger on this game changer if he is still available when the Bucs are on the board at pick number 5. Allen is one of the best players available in the draft this year at a position that has become more and more important in today’s pass-happy league. He has all the tools to become a starter at the next level right away and to be a pro bowler sooner rather than later.

Pros:

– Highly explosive and athletic
– Excellent motor and drive
– Extremely motivated and passionate on every play

Cons:

– Small frame for NFL standards
– Needs to work on his strength in order to pass rush successfully in the NFL
