Weaknesses:
Summary: Derrick Morgan’s stock has really risen this season and I expect him to come off the board in the top 20 picks now. There is so much value for pass rushers in the 4-3 scheme in the league since they are so hard to come by, but Morgan’s well-rounded skill set and potential will make him of value to NFL teams.
NFL Fans of 3-4 teams: don’t get your hopes up. Morgan really struggles when dropping into coverage. He is most comfortable with his hand in the ground. I’ve really liked Morgan since his Clemson game in 2009 and he has shown great consistency throughout the year producing 12.5 sacks as of Nov. 15. His production and athleticism will get noticed by NFL teams.
Player Comparison: Patrick Kerney. Kerney’s motor, strength, and initial quickness has made him a successful player in the NFL. I see similar traits in Morgan.
