6. Delvon Randall, S, Temple

The first thing that jumps out about Temple product Delvon Randall is his leadership. On the field, however, he has solid range and fantastic ball skills making him effective zone coverage. When he’s asked to play the run, he displays excellent tackling technique. He’s tenacious and brings it on every play. At 5-10, 215 pounds, he’s built well enough to play in the box.

Athletically, there are some concerns, but if he can knock those concerns at the Combine, his name will get called within the top 100. For teams who are looking for a strong safety who can line up deep in Cover 2 and drop down in the box at times, Randall makes sense.

5. Daniel Wise, DT, Kansas

It’ll prove to be a wise move to play close attention to Daniel Wise. He’s an ideal three-technique who brings some versatility with him. At Kansas, they moved the big man along the defensive front. According to The Draft Network, Wise proved he’s an ideal fit as three-technique with a dominant early showing at the Shrine Game practices:

"“Unblockable is not an over-exaggeration… [Wise] seems to have found a home at 3-technique this week.”"

NFL teams are thirsty for guys to collapse the pocket. Wise has an excellent bull rush and quick hands. He’d do a great job in a 4-3 front, especially in this modern-day NFL. Wise teams will target the Kansas product on Day 3 and get a situational guy who can develop into a starter.
