POSITIVES

— Times up the snap well on passing downs and has a nice initial burst off the line.

— Sets up his pass-rush moves well during the stem phase of the rush by getting to square and/or faking inside.

— Has a good rip move to win around the edge.

— Relentless motor to get coverage sacks.

— Takes on blocks with good leverage at the point of attack as a run defender.

NEGATIVES

— Short and lacks ideal length for an NFL edge.

— Timing and accuracy with his hands/initial chops to start his pass-rush moves are a little off. Often late and allows offensive linemen to make the first significant contact.

— Hips and ankles are a little stiff, which limits his bend to turn a tight corner at the top of the rush.

— Stops his feet on contact and has a habit of ducking inside when setting the edge as a run defender.

— Gets stuck on blocks and blends in rather than standing out versus run.

OVERALL

Mohamed Kamara could be a solid pass-rusher in the NFL. He was highly productive over the last three seasons at Colorado State with 28 sacks while rushing from several different alignments. He has decent quickness and some nuance as a rusher to go along with a nice rip move and a relentless motor.

Against the run, Kamara has a few strengths that stand out. He takes on blocks with good leverage, gets under pullers as the spill player in run fits and stays close to the heel line when unblocked to help make tackles from the backside versus zone runs. However, he struggles to shed blocks and likely won't be much of a factor on early downs in the NFL.

The Colorado State product also has a lot of other factors that will impact his draft stock and be hard to overcome. He lacks the ideal NFL size/length for the position, is an older draft prospect as a sixth-year senior and played at a lower level of competition.

Overall, he's worthy of a Day 3 selection for any team looking to add a situational pass-rusher in the later rounds.
