Jerald Hawkins (OL), LSU
6’6” | 305 lbs.
Projection:
2nd-3rd Round
Scouting Report:
"Hawkins is a tough evaluation because the length and footwork in pass protection are promising, but issues with bend and body control may be difficult to correct. Hawkins has talent, but his ceiling might be tied directly to whether a team allows him to sit while an offensive line coach works to correct the technical flaws that limit his effectiveness. Hawkins best spot may be right tackle." - Lance Zierlein, NFL.com
