OVERVIEW
Injuries and the Tigers' passing game woes have hampered Dural's productivity during his career. He was forced to redshirt the 2012 season after injuring his knee in pre-season practice, but came back to contribute as a reserve in 2013 (7-145, two TD). Dural had a breakout year as a sophomore, starting every game and leading the team in receptions (37), receiving yards (758) and receiving scores (seven). His production dipped in 2015 (28-533, three TD) partially due to a hamstring injury late in the year. In 2016, Dural managed only 28 catches for 280 yards and one score in a mediocre LSU passing attack, again missing time in November because of a shoulder issue.

ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS Good size with great play speed. Has wheels to challenge cornerbacks up and over the top if they start to sit on his routes. Has the feet to jab and juke into the clear against press with more coaching. Early accelerator into his routes with desired forward lean. Doesn't need extended runway to hit top speed. Plus athlete with the wiggle and speed to turn crossing routes into chunk plays. Plays with some grit after the catch when challenging tacklers. Much more talented than his production would indicate. Possesses adequate toughness. Efficient hand fighter who is able to adjust routes against contact. Always plays up to his natural speed. Gives reliable effort as blocker and has the size to widen the contain of smaller corners.


WEAKNESSES Small hands measured less than 9 inches last spring. Suffers from occasional focus drops. Finished with just one catch of 20-plus yards. Lack of production could bother scouts despite poor quarterback play. Never reached the 40 catch mark in any of his seasons at LSU. Has long speed, but below-average ball skills to capitalize. Tracking and gauging the deep ball is a challenge. Allows defenders room to play the ball rather than stacking and controlling them on his hip. Routes powered by speed over precision. Inconsistent when asked to make combat catches.

DRAFT PROJECTION Rounds 5-6

SOURCES TELL US "Remember that this is the same program that was able to hold Beckham (Odell Beckham, Jr.) and Jarvis Landry at bay in college. LSU's quarterbacks stink. Dural gets a projection grade because he just didn't do enough on tape." -- AFC area scout

NFL COMPARISON Arrelious Benn

BOTTOM LINE Dural has the size and athletic traits that could push his draft value well beyond his college production that was hindered by a flailing offense that never found a capable quarterback. While he has legitimate pro talent and deep speed, his average ball skills and body positioning make him a "high ceiling, low floor" option at wideout.

"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!

OVERVIEW
A three-sport star at Oakwood High School in Illinois, Lee holds school records for home runs and runs batted in, and was a 1,000-point scorer in basketball along with his all-county play on the gridiron. He walked on at ISU to focus on football, playing on the practice squad in 2013 and in 13 games as a reserve as a sophomore. Lee won the starting job at right guard as a junior, and then earned honorable mention All-Missouri Valley Football Conference honors as a starter at guard and right tackle.

ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS Has long arms at the end of a well-proportioned, NFL-caliber frame. Always looking to finish his blocks when he's able to sustain. Will flash some edge to his play. Attempts to unlock hips and roll them into his run blocks. Plays with some upper body "wrestling strength" when it's time to maul. Pass sets with a wide base. Possesses natural anchor strength to battle back against bull-rush attempts. Sees and responds to twists. Keeps hands hanging in punch-ready position. Hands generally stay inside the frame of opponent.

WEAKNESSES Pops up too tall after the snap. Poor pad level robs him of low-man status and ability to generate drive-blocking power. Has heavy feet and is slow into second-level blocks. Unable to mirror athletic interior rushers smoothly. Straight-legged pass setter with poor change of direction quickness. Waist-bending and leaning into blocks is a common theme throughout the tape. Has problems with body control and balance. Over-sets on the edges and allows his weight to drift outside of his frame. Tends to lead with his upper body in all aspects of his game. Needs to play with faster hands.

DRAFT PROJECTION Round 6-7

BOTTOM LINE Lack of natural bend limits his power and he has below average athleticism, but Lee's size and physical traits are certain to appeal to teams who covet those strengths along the interior. He could become a career backup who could step into some snaps in the right situation.

"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!

OVERVIEW
The only person that can stop Noil is Noil himself. He was rated as the nation's top "athlete" recruit as a star high school player from New Orleans, and excelled in his first year with the Aggies as a receiver (five starts, 46-583, five TDs) and returner (27-645 kick returns; 15-180 punt returns), leading the team in all-purpose yards. Noil began running into trouble after that season, being suspended for spring 2015 practices, for a game in November, and for the bowl game that season. He played in just nine games, starting three (21-226, two TDs receiving; 11-241 kick returns; 2-17 punt returns). Noil was forced to sit out the 2016 opener, as well as their bowl game. He finished with eight starts in 10 games, catching 21 passes for 325 yards and two touchdowns. Noil chose to go to the NFL instead of returning to college after his latest suspension.

ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS Extremely explosive athlete. Was the NIKE SPARQ (Speed, Power, Agility, Reaction, Quickness) Rating national champion coming out of high school. Tough guy. Will take the best a hitter has to offer, bounce back up and run to the huddle. Good vertical speed to get over the top of slow-transitioning cornerbacks. Compact and powerful. Play strength is a plus. Has potential to be moved all over the field. Offers value as a dangerous kick returner.

WEAKNESSES Failed to live up to potential out of high school. Struggles to process and is limited in what coaches ask him to do. Poor ball tracking skills. When he wins vertically, that doesn't mean a catch is coming. Jack-of-many-trades but masters none. Route running is basic. Scouts lament his off-the-field character.

DRAFT PROJECTION PFA

SOURCES TELL US "He is off of our board. Good athlete, but not a good football player and not a guy we want in our locker room." - AFC area scout
BOTTOM LINE The talent and athleticism alone is worth a higher grade, but the lack of production combined with character concerns inside the scouting community could make Noil a difficult sell until after the draft.

"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!

Saints sign Memphis DB Arthur Maulet

lee909

In the days leading up to the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl, we will profile several of the players committed to play in the sixth annual showcase. Today, we feature Memphis defensive back Arthur Maulet.



It took a lot of hard work and dedication for Arthur Maulet to reach the heights of his career. Despite starting four years as a defensive back in high school, he would have to take his talents to the JUCO circuit, playing his freshman and sophomore years at Copiah-Lincoln Community College. He put up big numbers there, racking up five interceptions in his second season, including one for a score. And when he couldn’t come down with a turnover, he was often able to bat the ball away, leading the NJCAA in passes broken up. With his stellar resume, it was assured that D-1 programs would come calling … and when Memphis rang, Maulet heeded their request and put on the gray and blue.

It didn’t take long for Maulet to get used to life in the AAC. In his first game against Southeast Missouri State, he registered three tackles and knocked a pass away in what was a relatively easy matchup for the Tigers. In fact, in his first three games, Maulet displayed his physicality by recording at least three solo tackles in each contest, and also breaking up two key passes in a narrow 44-41 victory over Bowling Green.

His first real test came against the high-powered offense of Cincinnati, and for much of the game, the Bearcats avoided Maulet. But that was only after Maulet came away with an interception on the fourth drive of the game and took it to the house to tie the game up. Those seven points would end up being the difference as Memphis managed to mount a furious comeback to win, 53-46.

Maulet’s second pick would come just a few weeks later when then-No. 13 Ole Miss strolled into town, boasting an aerial attack that would make most any defensive back nervous. But not Maulet. He threw his body around all over the field, notching six solo tackles (a season-high) and picking off the Rebels in the final seconds to seal a 37-24 victory. While Maulet would continue his high level of play, the Tigers could not sustain their high level of success, as they were upset by Navy and beaten by Houston in back-to-back weeks. Maulet refused to quit, however, as he had a pass broken up and six total tackles against Houston in a tightly contested loss, and would finish with seven passes broken up on the season.

The lockdown defensive back started off his final season with a bang. In the opener against Southeast Missouri State, he had three passes broken up and snagged another interception. Teams quickly realized that the best way to neutralize Maulet’s speed and athleticism was simply not to throw the ball near him at all.

While they handled their first three games pretty handily, the Tigers faltered against Ole Miss in the rematch, though not for lack of trying. Maulet registered another pick against the Rebels, five tackles, and even chipped in on offense by reeling in a 12-yard reception. He and the rest of the Tigers would bounce back by posting successive victories over No. 23 Temple and Tulane, and Maulet’s aggression showed with his seven tackles from all over the field.

By then, it was evident that Maulet’s blend of speed and strength would make him an asset near the line of scrimmage, and so the Tigers slowly but surely called up more plays that would have him closer to the line. The result? Against Tulsa, Maulet started a streak that would extend to the end of the season where he would register at least half a tackle for a loss. The Tigers’s beatdown of SMU saw Maulet get his first-ever sack, and his tackle totals increased along the way.

He would finish the year by registering at least six tackles in each of his final eight games, and he saved his two most impressive efforts for last. Memphis’s 48-44 win over Houston was a by-product of some incredibly physical defense, and Maulet did his part with six total tackles, half a sack, and an impressive four passes broken up. Then, in their bowl game against the explosive Hilltoppers from Western Kentucky, Maulet racked up three sacks and 11 tackles, including 3.5 for loss.

Maulet may have been passed over early in his career, but he definitely made his mark in Memphis. Now, quarterbacks are leery to pass in his direction, and when the ball carrier did find his way to Maulet’s area, a big hit was sure to follow. Not many corners are as well known for both their coverage skills and their ability to wrap up and deliver a crucial blow, but for Maulet, it was just one more facet that made him so great for the Tigers.
