POSITIVES

— Smooth athlete with fluid hips and very good body control. Shows great twitch and agility in his short-area movements, combined with the top-end speed to carry receivers deep.

— Gets his head around to locate and play the ball. Doesn't panic when chasing from out of position and has very good timing when breaking up passes.

— Willing tackler who chops down ball-carriers at the legs.

NEGATIVES

— Thin-framed athlete who lacks ideal strength for his size and position. Can get bumped off at the top of routes.

— Wrap and drag-down tackler who leaks extra yards on his tackles. Will need to continue to develop strength when tackling bigger backs.

OVERALL

Kris Abrams-Draine is a three-year player who started out as a receiver for his first five games at Missouri before switching to cornerback. He has good length for a cornerback but lacks the size and strength necessary for the NFL. His raw skill set allows him to run and cover most athletes he faces, but he will need to continue to develop his technique with his cover skills.

Abrams-Draine is at his best when he's in coverage. His time at receiver takes over with the ball in the air, and he does a great job of locating and attacking the ball in the air. He shows the body control and awareness necessary to play through the catch point or high-point the ball with his hands.

Abrams-Draine has the versatility necessary to play from press and off coverage, but he's best when he's able to see the routes develop in front of him. He has the foot quickness to transition and drive out of breaks, quickly closing the separation with proper angles. However, bigger receivers can cause trouble for him by bullying him on 50/50 balls or bumping him off at the top of routes.

Abrams-Draine is a willing defender who quickly triggers downhill to the run. He uses his quicks to beat blocks in space, but he can struggle when forced to take on blocks when in phase with the ball-carrier. He lacks the ideal strength to shock and disengage from blockers, leading to him often getting shielded or driven out of the play.

As a tackler, he does a great job of flying up with good aggression. However, he relies on throwing his body around without tackling or diving at the legs to cut down the ball-carrier.

Abrams-Draine has plenty of upside and has an NFL skill set, but he will need to continue to develop his body. A high-end developmental player, he has the opportunity to play within the first few years of his career. He may be best suited for a scheme fit, but he does provide some versatility within most defenses.
