Below, I've clipped intel from each prospects reports on the SIS NFL Draft Site, including their overall grade, how they graded in certain critical and positional factors, as well as scouting notes.

  • Overall Grade: Each player was graded based on how the scout thought they would perform in the NFL by the beginning of their second year. Their projected role by Year 2 is shown in (parentheses) alongside their scouting grade and a brief description.
  • Critical and Positional Factors: Each factor is graded on a scale from 1-9. If a player has no below the line or above the line grades, meaning they graded out as sufficient (5) or good (6) in all factors, they won't have a callout in their profile below.

SIS Scouting Reports — Grade (Scale)


There's a part of me that thinks Jim Harbaugh loves coaching so much that he would rather coach somebody new rather than continue teaching one of his former disciples, in this case Colston Loveland, as he's already poured everything he could into developing him into a 1st Round talent while at Michigan.

I do think Harbaugh's willing to bring in former players who are otherwise struggling to find work, like Hassan Haskins or Cornelius Johnson, but most teams in the NFL would like to employ Loveland, Kenneth Grant, Mason Graham, Will Johnson, and other highly rated prospects.

Anyway, in the second round the Chargers select Alfred Collins, nose tackle, Texas, to fill the Runyon Canyon-sized void left behind by Poona Ford, who now plays for the Rams.

In the third, they toggle back to the offensive line and select OG Miles Frazier, who has a "mean play personality," which should fit right in with Harbaugh's preferred brand of physicality.
