The cons to Drue Chrisman in the NFL…
A 32-yard punt from Drue Chrisman. Not much is going right for Ohio State here in the first half.

There were times Chrisman had some bad punts without pressure. While it happens, scouts will have to look closer to fully understand what caused those. He could be pressing to make bigger kicks, which Chrisman has an outstanding leg for, and not watching the ball all the way to his foot. It seems small, but when your entire job is kicking, it is worth noting.
The biggest downside to Chrisman getting drafted is the small population of punters in the NFL. He will not make a scout team, so a team has to be in a market for a punter or at least want to bring him to camp. His size and leg should at least get him a look.
Chrisman will probably go undrafted or at best a very late-round pick. He will find a home for training camp and his monster leg should help him stick around on the right team. Consider Chrisman one of the best special teams players in this class.
