2019 NFL Mock Draft: Josh Allen rises in full 2-round mock
By Randy Gurzi
30. Los Angeles Rams: Raekwon Davis, DT, Alabama
The best trait for Raekwon Davis is his incredible size. The Alabama defensive lineman is listed at 6-7 and 316-pounds and at one point it seemed like he would be picked in the top-10. He ended up being shown up by his teammate Quinnen Williams and dipped in pass rushing production as well.
Still, scouts love him as evidenced by the following quote via Kalyn Kahler, MMQB on SI.com:
"“He is a man-child. Gigantic human being. He is still learning how to play, but he plays with such natural force and he is really long so he is hard to block. He plays like all those Alabama defensive linemen do, like Jarran Reed, Dalvin Tomlinson, he’s the next in line. He’s another guy with a huge ceiling. His pass rush production is down a little bit this year but he can really affect the inside of the pocket, coming off the ball and pushing it. He is a really high-end player.” — Unnamed scout via Kalyn Kahler, MMQB on SI.com"
For the Los Angeles Rams, he would again find himself paired with a monster of a player in Aaron Donald. Los Angeles likely won’t be able to retain Ndamukong Suh due to his asking price, but Davis could end up being a better move in the long run.
