7th Round – Azur Kamara, Kansas
Kamara only played two seasons for Kansas after two years in junior college. His two seasons with Kansas saw him flit between defensive end and outside linebacker, putting up 4.5 sacks and 11 tackles for loss in total. Kamara is a fascinating prospect, given his time in Juco and the fact that he actually wanted to play soccer at high school.
Kamara has tried to model parts of his game after his role model Khalil Mack. Not a terrible path to follow in, I suppose. He needs some time to develop his instincts as a pass rusher, but taken this late in the draft there would be no pressure to throw him into the starting lineup immediately. As a prospect that can contribute on defense and special teams, he’s a solid last-round selection with a ton of upside.
