With the 76th pick in 2019 NFL Draft the Washington Redskins selected...
Blake Cashman, LB, Minnesota
The former walk-on has not only been one of the best linebackers in the country, but also blew up the combine.
Height: 6'1''
Weight: 237 lbs
40 yard: 4.5
Vert: 37.5"
Broad: 124"
3-Cone: 6.95 seconds
20-yd Shuttle: 4.12 seconds
The Redskins are looking for another MLB to play next to Mason Foster, and in the third round, we were able to snag someone who is already an incredibly productive football player, but also is the sort of athlete you think can project to be something more in the NFL. The kid eats and breathes football, and is someone I want on this team.
NFL Comparison: Joe Schobert
Strengths
- Decent size with good athleticism, strength, and instincts for the position.
- Read and react ability as well as his instincts stand out. He can sift through the chaos and locate the ball quickly and rarely ever takes the cheese on fakes or gets turned around. In run defense once he locates the ball he is full speed ahead. Has a little pass rush ability and he converts speed to power well and plays with good physicality. As a result he has some really impressive short yardage stops. Additionally his closing burst and quickness are a problem if he penetrates the LOS its the reason why he has so many TFLs.
- While he isn’t a top tier athlete at the position his athleticism appears above average in a lot of cases. Has a little experience as a DB early in his career and looks good as far as his flexibility and change of direction skills in space.
- Excellent technique and consistency as a tackler, no one armed swipes and few diving at ankles in his game. Squares up, wraps up, and takes the ball carrier down.
- Given his physical style of play some may question how much weight or strength he can add if a team asked. I think his functional strength is more than fine but for some teams they may want their middle linebacker a little beefier. Given his height and frame it may be hard for him to do and maintain his speed and athleticism.
- A bit under sized for the position, barely 6-1 with arms shorter than desired at the position.
- Waits for gaps to open up and relies on his speed to create pressure all fine if he wins but I saw very little hand technique involved to help him stack and shed. He’ll need to develop it whether he’s on special teams or not at the next level.

The Texans won't have to look to far to grab this guy.
The Houston Texans select Isaiah Johnson, CB, Houston.
Reasons: Texans luck out after getting very aggressive early in the draft and get a great CB prospect in Johnson. The Texans have good corners, although there was some disappointment last year for the Texans. Joseph has been great for a long time but he's getting very long in the tooth for the position.
Enter Johnson. He's a long, big, physical corner with traits for days. Fast, agile, explosive athlete that gives you everything you want in a corner. And he can learn from the elder statesman in Joseph to learn those little tricks of the trade at cornerback.
Truthfully, I don't think the Texans could have hoped for anything better than getting Johnson.
Chicago and @dkbldev are now on the clock.

With the 87th Pick in the 2019 NFL Draft,
The Chicago Bears select…Jace Sternberger, TE, Texas A&M
Route Running -Really, really smooth. Love how easily he rolls through breaks and carries speed to snap off his angles and create separation. Attacks all three levels of the field effectively and shows a strong feel for finding soft spots in zone.
Hands - Super soft. Easily plucks the ball out of the air. Has shown excellent concentration on tipped passes over the middle on numerous occasions. His catch radius is extensive and has little issue catching the ball at full extension.
Versatility -Has been aligned all over offensive sets: flexed, in an H-back/move role and in traditional in-line formation. Receiving chops are effective in all spaces but the further away from the edge the better blocker he can be. Wins with speed and natural body control as receiver.
Contested Catch Ability -Has made several impressive catches in traffic. Has held onto a few hospital balls that his QB hung him out to dry on. His aggressive approach of the football and his body control to brace for contact are top shelf in this regard.
Run After Catch Ability -Not necessarily the most powerful player but he's tenacious after the catch and persistent in pulling off of soft tackle challenges. His second gear is good...not elite, though. He's perfectly capable in space of making someone miss, pretty versatile in this area.
Power At POA - He isn't going to overwhelm anyone but he's sticky and shows good foot speed to stay in front of the defender. Had success at the POA as a pin blocker or turn-out blocker on the edge but doesn't reset the LOS with any power of note.
Competitive Toughness - High effort player in both the run game and as a pass catcher. Not going to tip off defenders with his effort or rolling lazily out of his stance. Functional strength could best be described as "adequate" in the box but shows terrific contact balance after the catch.
Flexibility - No issues with his hinges. Like his mobility through the core to peel back to the football and adjust to poorly thrown passes. His length and extension skills are enhanced by mobility through the shoulders and comfort in extension.
Balance - Dynamic base is pretty impressive, like how easily he generates tilt and lean as he runs to carry momentum and continue to roll through his cut. His ability to absorb contact and continue to push up the field and keep his balance provides a key element in RAC.
Football Intelligence - Three different schools in three seasons but he's still fairly advanced as a receiver. He's effective in slipping past bodies in shallow zones and getting momentum and shows pretty clean footwork. Big area of improvement on routes is not being passive at times to cross face.
BEST TRAIT - Contested Catch Ability
WORST TRAIT - Power at POA
BEST FILM -South Carolina (2018)
WORST FILM - Alabama (2018)
RED FLAGS - None
Bears fill a position of need with a player that they did not think would be around with their pick. Mulled over taking a RB after trading Howard but realize a running back can be picked up in the later rounds with still many available. Really like the versatility of Sternberger and see him as an extra blocker downfield if Mitchell decides to run. Bears can also have a promotional food item to sell at games, the Sternberger. It's a $25 half pound burger with the Chicago dog condiments/fixings.

With the 88th selection in the 2019 RCF NFL Mock staff,
The Detroit Lions Select:
Vosean Joseph, LB, Florida
Per USA Today:
Joseph entered Florida’s starting lineup as a sophomore, helping to replace linebackers Jarrad Davis and Alex Anzalone after they left to the NFL.
During his three years, Joseph shined. He led the Gators in tackling with 93 tackles, while also recording nine tackles for a loss, four sacks, five pass breakups, a quarterback hurry and a forced fumble as a junior.
Joseph competes with a quick trigger and shows off his impressive blend of athleticism and range. He plays with lateral mobility, speed and pop and is routinely in the vicinity of the play. While athletic and displays great movement skills, his disorganized break down skills dent his ability in the run game, and lacks awareness as a coverage defender.
Overall, Joseph is a loose athlete with downhill speed, range, and navigation skills to be a starting weakside NFL linebacker, but he will have to clean up certain areas to his game, including taking on blocks, processing and finishing skills.
Projection: 3rd Round
View: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iJCY5ORqdH0
Long story short: Detroit has hardly any defensive playmakers and it’s time to make changes and add some aggression, we like we Vosean offers to that dynamic.

Well I wanted Isaiah Johnson and my fallback was Vosean Joseph. Crap. Give me a moment to check my big board.
Okay. After missing on their two targets (and giving away their draft strategy), with the 89th pick the Indianapolis Colts select Joe Jackson, Edge, Miami.
Colts continue to reinforce a strong defensive front seven. Jackson had consistent production at Miami posting tackles for loss totals of 10.5, 10.5 and 14.5, and sack totals of 7.5, 6.5 and 8.5 across his three seasons. He added 5 passes defensed including one interception (returned 42 yards for a touchdown), 5 forced fumbles and 2 fumble recoveries.
Colts haul through round 3:
1. Jerry Tillery DT
2. Parris Campbell WR
3. Johnathan Abram S
4. Joe Jackson Edge
@Phills14 and Dallas are up.

With the 90th pick in the RCF NFL Mock Draft
The Dallas Cowboys select
JoeJuan Williams, CB, Vanderbilt
The Dallas Cowboys select
JoeJuan Williams, CB, Vanderbilt
HOMETOWN: Nashville, TN
CLASS: Junior
HEIGHT: 6’4”
WEIGHT: 211 Lbs
ARMS: 32 1/2”
HANDS: 9 3/4”
Player Bio
Williams attempted to transfer high schools as a senior but the state high school association denied his hardship case. He had been an All-State pick at Nashville's Father Ryan High School his junior year, so the Commodores did not have to go far to recruit him. Williams played in all 13 games as a reserve his true freshman season, collecting 19 tackles (including four in the team's bowl game), 1.5 for loss, and two pass breakups. Williams started all 13 games in his sophomore season (39 tackles, 2.5 for loss, 10 pass breakups) but really showed NFL scouts his true potential during his junior year, when he was voted second-team All-SEC by league coaches after recording 61 tackles, two for loss, four interceptions and 14 pass breakups in 13 starts.
Overview
Long press corner who has shown an ability to use his size and aggression as a zealot in contested catch battles. While he has traits to build upon, the Georgia game shined a light on his press inefficiency, lack of speed and inconsistent ball skills with his back to the quarterback. Coaching and scheme can improve or cover some of those areas, but the early results could be a bit uneven. If the technique catches up with the traits, the play demeanor and talent should make him a solid NFL starter.
Strengths
- Excellent combination of size and length
- Battle-tested against upper-echelon talent at receiver
- Ball production found him this season
- Absolutely smothering once he ensnares the release
- Outside release gets smashed against the boundary
- Plays with good agility for his size
- Functional self-fixer after an early misstep in coverage
- Has size to compete against big, physical NFL targets
- Length and physicality tilt contested catches in his favor
- Very quick hands to strike into passing lane
- Rips between and through arms and hands
- A bad play doesn't seem to wreck his confidence
- Aggressive and reliable tackle-finisher in space
Weaknesses
- Makes splashy plays and gives them up
- Impatience from press is a concern
- Displaced out of position by outside release fakes
- Needs better connection rate with jams
- Lacks hips and long speed to survive a speedster's head-start
- Downfield ball skills need work
- Panicky hands when back is to the ball
- Grabs or attacks receiver prematurely resulting in penalties
- Inconsistent finding and adjusting to the throw
- Issues with coverage balance from zone against Georgia
- Slow to match comebacks from bail technique
Why?
The Cowboys would look good with another CB in the mix. Byron Jones occupies 1 side with Chidobe Awuzie on the opposite. Williams can come in and challenge Awuizie for that starting spot or at worst be a quaility 3rd CB.
Cowboys Draft thus far
#58 Jaylon Ferguson, DE
#90 JoeJuan Williams, CB

Cleveland ships Duke Johnson to Atlanta for 4th rounder + Ito Smith
After Duke made his trade request public, John Dorsey wanted to act quickly. As has been reported, Duke had been on the trade block for weeks and Dorsey had been in contact with multiple teams.
After much consideration, Dorsey believes this was the best deal for Cleveland. The Browns not only get a 4th round pick (#117), but they also get a 2nd year RB coming off a very solid rookie season in Ito Smith to backup Nick Chubb and provide depth once Kareem Hunt returns from suspension.
Full details:
Cleveland receives:
2019 4th round pick (#117)

Atlanta receives:

Congratulations to Falcons GM @King Stannis on landing one of the most dynamic receivers out of the backfield in the league.

With the 91st pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, the LA Chargers select:
Tytus Howard, OT, Alabama State University.
Why:
The Chargers offensive line has been an issue for a while, struggling to fill the guard and right tackle positions with above average players. Tytus Howard has the size, length, and athleticism to be a capable starting tackle in the NFL, but he is raw and will need to be coached up to improve technique, while also gaining functional strength in an NFL training program. Playing at the right tackle spot, where he spent the majority of his time in college, should help the transition, as will playing with a veteran quarterback that can get the ball out quickly when he needs to.
Overview
Ascending tackle prospect who will require additional work with technique and in the weight room to fully realize his potential. Howard is a gifted athlete with rare quickness and fluidity as both a run and pass blocker and his play issues are correctable with more work. While he will be dinged for level of competition, his upside was on full display with his play against Auburn. He needs development, but he's much more than a developmental prospect and could find a starter's spot within his first two years.

He needs development, but he's much more than a developmental prospect and could find a starter's spot within his first two years.
Strengths
- Former high school quarterback with high-end athletic ability
- Knee-bender who is extremely smooth and fluid in pass sets
- Plenty of quickness in slides to meet speed specialists at top of the rush arc
- Mirrors to keep defenders in front of him like a defensive specialist in hoops
- Attacks rushers with jabs and counters rather than predictable punch
- Maintains posture while re-setting hands, which protects against counters
- Locked down Auburn's edge rushers for most of the matchup
- Operates with quickness and timing to thrive on second level as run blocker
- Continues working hips and feet to gain positioning advantage after engagement
- Plays with pad level and lateral speed to get to toughest backside blocks
- Excellent potential as move blocker up to second level
- Good job to steer and seal the edge for sweeps
Weaknesses
- Hand placement and hand strength needs a lot of work
- Loses leverage and core strength with misplaced hands
- Flailing outside hand carries no steam
- Unable to generate push through leg drive due to lack of lower-body power
- Gives ground when edge rushers double back into a bull rush
- Will lean in his pass sets, looking for help to brace up
- Needs to get hands off quicker and keep from giving away his chest
- Needs to hit weights in order to add mass and weight
- Lacks upper-body strength
- Defaults to bear-hug mauling as base blocker

With the 92nd pick in the draft,
the Kansas City Chiefs select:
Abby | OL | Mississippi State
Why?
Former starting center Mitch Morse signed a deal with Buffalo this offseason, leaving us with Austin Reiter as the lone center on the roster. We have high hopes for Reiter, but competition breeds success.
"Elgton Jenkins presents as a potential starting Center at the NFL level. Jenkins possesses ample athleticism and size for the position, he carries his weight gracefully and is successful in combo blocks and efforts to climb to the second level. Jenkins' style of play would be best served in a zone rushing system and quick passing game, as Jenkins' competitive toughness and anchor will be exposed if tasked with going toe to toe with defenders for extended periods of time."
-Crabbs, The Draft Network
Seems like the ideal fit for Kansas City. We're glad that one of the better center prospects in this years draft fell to us here.
Newest Chiefs:
Trade: WR ABBY
Pick 29: S Abigail
Pick 38: CB Abby Ann
Pick 63: DE AAC
Pick 69: CB Pretty Face
Pick 92: OL Beauty

the Kansas City Chiefs select:
Abby | OL | Mississippi State
Abby
IOL, Mississippi State
- CONF SEC
- JERSEY #14
- CLASS Senior
- HT 5'8"
- DOB 9/4/1995
- WT perfect
Functional Athleticism - Has the physical mobility necessary to climb the ladder and challenge defenders on the second level successfully. Has good lateral mobility when stringing out blocks to stay sticky and harass defenders at the point of attack.
Football IQ - Heady player, is aware of action and twists/stunts in his area designed to create mishaps up front. Reliable to be in his assigned spaces consistently. Does well with assisting calls at the line of scrimmage prior to the snap.
Anchor Ability - Catches too many defenders with soft, wide hands and attempts to bow the back and eat up rushes. Natural size aids in efforts but too many reps result in getting collapsed in the pocket back into the lap of his passer.
Hand Technique - Hands are wide and he can be frustrating with the ability to time his punches with his snap. When able to establish a fit, shows good awareness of how to tilt and turn defenders to generate body positioning and wall off a lane.
Balance - Can fail to slide and shuffle the feet when needing to string out plays and allow defenders to work their hips over-top of a leveraged position. Plays with a wide base in anchored pass sets and doesn't yield extra space laterally.
Pass Sets - Needs to drop his hips and get more activation in the posterior chain if he hopes to anchor effectively against power rushes. Plays too passive at times and will get collapsed despite necessary qualities to hold his ground firm.
Flexibility - Has ample mobility through his hips, able to unlock and hinge cleanly to slide laterally. Mobility doesn't transfer below the hips, however. Often plays tall through the knees and pad level suffers as a result. Needs to improve coil to generate additional power at contact.
Power at POA - When things click, he has plenty of push. Mobility and wide frame allow for overwhelming defenders at the point of attack, although needs to improve his strike timing to win at first contact as a means of resetting the line of scrimmage.
Length/Extension - Has plenty of anatomical length but is missing functional application. Poor timing and wide punch shorten his strike zone and allow defenders to get into his chest. Needs to increase urgency with stab to get hands on the body.
Competitive Toughness - Not particularly inspiring. A lot of plays seem to come with a modest level of aggression, doesn't play with a mauler mentality and needs additional focus on winning quickly vs. trying to ride out a play. Room for growth, but attitude/fire/aggression is a missing link right now.
BEST TRAIT - Boobs
WORST TRAIT - Too hot
BEST FILM - Georgia (2017)
WORST FILM -no such thing
RED FLAGS - None
