Xavier McKinney, S, Alabama
He seems to have fallen out of the first round after failing to put up a good 40-yard dash time at the 2020 NFL Combine. McKinney is a physical and versatile defensive back who should own the slot at the NFL level. Perhaps, however, NFL teams fear he’ll be limited to covering tight ends with his slower 40-yard dash time.
Antoine Winfield, S, Minnesota
His film was tantalizing: he looked like Earl Thomas. But there was one question: How would he measure at the combine? Because his range didn’t quite seem to be there. Then he ran a 4.45 40-yard dash. It’s wild he slipped out of the first round.
