2011 NFL Draft Scouting Report: Corey Liuget

Strengths:
  • Quick off snap
  • Strong against the run
  • Able to bull rush with power
  • Athletic and laterally mobile
  • Very versatile
  • Good initial punch



    Weaknesses:
  • Does not possess closing speed
  • Needs to develop pass rushing moves
  • Still working on stamina and conditioning
  • Not much experience

    Summary: Corey Liuget ended his collegiate career a year early and went out on a high note with an impressive showing in the Texas Bowl. He was used in multiple spots on the Illinois line which is a valuable asset heading into the 2011 NFL Draft. His best fit appears to be a penetrating tackle in a 4-3 front.

    Player Comparison: Sedrick Ellis. I see no good reason to sway from this common comparison. Their frames are similar and both have balanced pass rush and run defense skills. When Ellis came out of USC he was considered a possible 3-4 nose tackle and Liuget carries the same potential.
