3. DL Jordan Elliott (Missouri)
Out of all the late-round defensive linemen, Missouri’s Jordan Elliott may have the most upside.
Elliott has elite measurables and plays with great strength. The big 6-foot-4, 315-pound defensive lineman is currently expected to be a solid fifth-round draft pick with room to ascend up draft boards.
He’s a guy that could fill that nose-tackle position and would be a great run-stuffer.
He still has room to develop in his technique and in processing, but there’s no reason to believe that he wouldn’t be able to adjust to the NFL level after playing the SEC for the last few seasons.
