Our Top 200 All-Time Draft Classes from 2020-2026

Closest to our process: Eagles, Colts, Browns
Furthest from our process: 49ers, Vikings, Falcons

Amarius Mims has the potential to be the best overall player in this class.
What a goddamn pick.
Looking for the next elite pass blocking OT in the 2024 class?
Amarius Mims, Joe Alt, and Patrick Paul stand out w/ clean pass blocking production profiles.
A few of the NFL's best OTs looked similarly coming out.
If the athleticism is there, these 3 have high ceilings.

Amarius Mims was more than a steal.
Theft.
He sits as the 10th best OT we’ve graded in the last 5 years (behind obvious pro bowl guys like Sewell, Wirfs, and Slater).
They picked him at 18 overall. The show begins soon.
A few things to watch (outside of Burrow) at the Bengals preseason opener:
🏈 Amarius Mims is giving the Bengals belief they landed a steal at No. 18 overall. Anticipating an extended look at the top pick who has worked as the starting right tackle in all 12 camp practices.

Counted 12 true drop-back, 1v1 reps from Mims vs. Watt, who was shut down working high-side, down the middle and inside. This is a top 5-6 RT in just his 3rd season 📈📈📈

Amarius Mims allowed 0 pressures on 40 pass block snaps today vs. TJ Watt and the Steelers, per PFF initial charting.
If that holds, that will be zero pressures on 110+ pass block snaps to start the season vs elite rushers.
This is what an All-Pro RT looks like.
Amarius Mims allowed 0 pressures on 34 pass block snaps today vs. the Texans and Will Anderson/Danielle Hunter, per PFF initial charting.
If that holds, that will be zero pressures on 70+ pass block snaps to start the season.
He’s quickly becoming an elite RT.

Jaishawn Barham is one of the most underrated players in this class.
His last (and best) season at Michigan was in a full-time rush OLB role, and we see him as an EDGE in the league.
Likely Round 3 pick, but he’ll have a Round 2 grade for us.

Cashius Howell continues to be a bright spot for the Bengals.
He led the team in pressures today with 4 and win rate at 25% on only 12 rushes (25 snaps).
He looks like the best pass rusher on that defense 3 games into his career.
It’s probably time to up his snap count.
Cashius Howell at Texas A&M: won his pass rushes at an elite rate
Cashius Howell with the Bengals: winning his pass rushes at an elite rate
His college production profile has translated immediately.

Other than Dexter Lawrence, pass rush is still a massive problem for the Bengals.
Aaron Rodgers had a 3.19 second time to throw today, his highest as a Steeler.
On dropbacks longer than 2.5 seconds: 11/21, 213 yards (10.1 yards per attempt), 3 touchdowns + 1 pick
15 attempts at lest 10 yards downfield -- most as a Steeler!

Shemar Stewart did not play a single snap today vs. the Steelers.
You can’t be getting zero impact from last year’s first round pick.

Amarius Mims allowed 0 pressures against TJ Watt and the Steelers on 21 pass block reps in the first half, per PFF initial charting.
That is now 90+ clean sheet reps to start the season.
He is an absolute brick wall.
The Amarius Mims breakout continued in the first half against the Texans.
He allowed 0 pressures on 20 pass block reps against Will Anderson and Danielle Hunter, per PFF initial charting.

Some thought John Mateer could be a first round pick going into this season.
One season later against real defenses….
He’s not draftable.

I just watched every Amarius Mims pass pro rep looking for the alleged "losses" - I personally count 0 losses and think PFF is out to lunch on his pass pro grade
Clip 1: If the blitzer is his guy (which would leave Sample 1-on-1 with Anderson), this is the hit
Clips 2-4: I'm not sure I'd consider any of these losses, but maybe you could I guess?

Here is that Howell college profile.
The Bengals went against every narrative we give them about EDGE rushers.
Cashius Howell is a historically small, older EDGE with an ELITE analytical profile.
This is a bet on production over traits.
He knows how to win as a rusher but the size and age is the risk.

Amarius Mims allowed 0 pressures on 37 pass block snaps today vs. the Bucs and primarily Rueben Bain, per PFF initial charting.
Would be the highest pass block grade of his career if it holds. Definitely looked like that good of a game.
