Ourlads' Profile:
2018 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about MARCUS DAVENPORT: Texas-San Antonio, 6056 264 4.59. Three-year starter from San Antonio, TX. Plays a standup outside linebacker. Will occasionally play with his hand down. Excellent height and length, with the ability to add another 20 pounds to his frame. Overall, very good athlete with speed, explosiveness, quickness, agility and balance. Solid run defender. On the front side he uses a good inside punch and his length to control blockers’ chest, and sheds easily. On the backside he is very disciplined to keep contain, but still closes the back door and makes a ton of plays running things down from behind. Very good pass rusher and pass rush plan. His primary move is a good bull rush where he uses his play strength and rare length to condense the pocket, but also wins with a long arm, chop-rip, and arm over. Has awareness to take the inside track when tackles overset. Has good bend around the edge to corner and finishes on the quarterback. Flashes pass cover ability running with a running back on a wheel route making a play on the ball. Has a rare combination of length, play strength, pass rush, effort, and toughness. A Pro Bowl talent whose best football is in front of him. Senior Bowl notes: Raw and inconsistent talent who had more good days than bad. A long and athletic pass rusher who stood up in a two-point stance where he is more comfortable than in a three-point stance with his hand on the ground. He played down inside at times and with his hands up blocking the quarterback’s vision. He routinely won his pass rush reps with both power and speed. Needs more of a variety of pass rush moves. 2017 stats: 55 T, 17 TFL, 8.5 sacks, 4 PBU, 8 QBH, 3 FF. Edge speed:left 2.40, right 2.09. OSR:3/ 23. First/second round. (A-33 5/8, H-9 1/8, BP-22, 10-1.64).
