Summary: McCoy is an amazing prospect and simply great at what he is – a three technique. He isn’t going to be Vince Wilfork, and 3-4 teams won’t target him. He will fit most 4-3 schemes looking for an elite pass rusher and someone who can disrupt opponents’ backfields. He has elite intangibles and should be a definite top-10 pick. McCoy is my No. 1 defensive tackle for the 2010 NFL Draft.
Player Comparison: Kevin Williams. Williams is one of the elite defensive tackles in the NFL with his athleticism, instincts and pass-rush ability.
