Ourlads' Profile:

2021 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about THOMAS GRAHAM JR.: Oregon, 5104 193 4.49. Three year starter, Rancho Cucamonga, CA. Opted out of the 2020 season but participated in the Senior Bowl. Was the field corner and played off and press man along with outside zone and Cover 2. In press mostly played a soft reactive press with an occasional offhand jam to maintain leverage. Could be physical at times disrupting routes. Shows recovery ability if beaten on a route break. In off coverage normally played with a good cushion changing speeds showing a smooth turn and run. Processes route combinations in zone and gets a read on the quarterback delivery key. Normally show a quick plant and drive on short throws underneath. Solid ball skills locating the ball on vertical routes and getting to the catch point. Has been productive breaking up passes. Can be physical as a hard corner disrupting release and sinking. Takes on blocks and works his hands to shed. Normally an efficient wrap tackler with the occasional big hit. As a deep outside zone defender often played with a big cushion at times allowing plays in front of him. In off man was often a step slow reacting on dig routes and quick inside cuts giving up some easy completions. In jamming a receiver at times pushes him into a break that gets him separated. Has some trouble with double moves biting on the first move at the line and as the route is extended. Lacks the speed to consistently recover if beaten deep or across the field. Has some experience as a nickel adding versatility. 2019 stats: 64 T, 5 TFL, 10 PBU, 1 FF, 2 INT. Fourth/fifth round. (A-31, H-9 1/8, VJ-34.5, SS-4.19).
