    Josh Hawkins
    School: East Carolina
    Position: CB

    Positive: Two-year starter who finished with a career-best 5 INT's and 11 PBUs as a junior. Athletic cornerback prospect that flashes ball skills. Effective facing the action, shows good route recognition in zone coverage and quickly locates the ball in the air. Has a nice move to the throw, correctly times his pass defenses and physically beats down opponents to break up passes. Works to get off blocks and make plays against the run.

    Negative: Lacks the great closing burst. Has questionable deep speed. Struggles making plays with his back to the ball.

    Analysis: Hawkins offers solid size and can line up in dime situations where he's facing the action.

    Arizona DE-OLB Reggie Gilbert to Packers

    The List
    Manoa Pikula, BYU, LB
    Makinton Dorleant, UNI, DB
    Kentrell Brice, LaTech, S
    Joe Callahan, Wesley, QB
    Beniquez Brown, MissSt, ILB
    Josh Hawkins, East Carolina, CB
    Brandon Burks, Troy, RB
    Don Jackson, Nevada, RB

    Packers have filled 9 of 21 open spots if they want to fill the roster today.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    http://www.draftinsider.net/reports/2016/RB/Don-Jackson

    Don Jackson
    School: Nevada
    Position: RB

    Positive: Junior-college transfer who's started the past two seasons, posting a career-best 1082 yards rushing and 8 TDs as a senior. Short but creative ball carrier with next level potential. Runs with good lean, patient and sets up defenders then makes them miss. Quick footed, sidesteps piles and possesses the agility necessary to turn the corner. Sees the field, finds the running lanes and has a burst which he turns on in a single step. Terrific job helping the quarterback sell ball fakes, displays good blocking vision and a solid pass catcher out of the backfield.

    Negative: Not a back that's going to pick up much yardage off initial contact. Cannot beat defenders into the open field or run to daylight.

    Analysis: Productive the past two seasons, Jackson projects as a third-down back/situational runner on Sunday.

    http://www.draftinsider.net/reports/...Reggie-Gilbert

    Reggie Gilbert
    School: Arizona
    Position: DE

    Positive: Three-year starter that's lined up at both defensive tackle and defensive end. All-Conference selection as a senior after 41 tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss and 3.5 sacks. Somewhat underrated defensive line prospect with decent upside. Plays with balance, rarely off his feet and moves well laterally chasing the action. Uses his hands to protect himself, plays low to the ground and keeps his feet moving on contact. Holds his ground against blocks or plays off them altogether to get to the action.

    Negative: Lacks bulk, easily knocked from the action by a single opponent or removed from the point. Possesses a poor closing burst.
    Analysis: Gilbert was out of position at and in Arizona's three-man line last season but is a prospect who should only get better as he physically matures and adds strength to his frame

    http://www.draftinsider.net/reports/...ronimo-Allison

    Geronimo Allison
    School: Illinois
    Position: WR

    Positive: Junior-college transfer that's started the past two seasons, leading Illinois in all receiving categories last year with 65 receptions, 882 yards and 3 TDs. Productive college receiver effective running after the catch. Comes back to the ball out of breaks, displays a sense of timing on receptions and gets vertical to highpoint the ball over opponents. Quickly releases off the line into pass routes, has a fluid style and lays out or extends to make the difficult reception. Works back to the quarterback to make himself an available target, finds a way to separate from defenders and uses his frame to protect the pass. Keeps the play in bounds running after the catch and shows short area quickness. Possesses soft hands and looks the pass in.

    Negative: Loses out in battles. Drops some catchable throws on occasion. One speed receiver who lacks a deep burst.

    Analysis: Allison has shown consistent progress the past two years and would be solid addition as a fifth receiver primarily used to run underneath routes.

    http://www.draftinsider.net/reports/...vonte-Robinson

    Devonte Robinson
    School: Utah State
    Position: WR

    Positive: Junior-college transfer who's been a part-time starter the past two seasons. Posted career totals of 44 receptions, 552 yards and 4 TDs as a senior. Athletic pass catcher who displays flashes of ability. Quick route runner, fires into breaks and stays low on exit, positioning himself to make the reception. Extends his hands and nicely makes the reception on crossing patterns. Easily adjusts to the errant throw and effectively makes the over the shoulder reception downfield. Uses the sidelines well.

    Negative: Displays poor focus and concentration. Takes his eyes off the ball before he's made the catch and drops catchable throws.

    Analysis: Robinson possesses the size and speed to lineup as a 4th or 5th receiver at the next level but must polish his game and start to pay attention to the details of his position.

    David Grinnage
    School: North Carolina State
    Position: TE

    Positive: Junior totals included 25 receptions, 290 yards and 3 TDs. Posted 5 touchdowns the Rotated into the starting lineup since his freshman season. Large tight end prospect with an unpolished game. Offers the quarterback a nice target, uses his frame to shield away defenders and works to make himself an available target. Nicely adjusts to the errant throw and displays solid focus as well as concentration.

    Negative: Limited speed and not a downfield threat. Does not play with much balance. Not a natural hand catcher and lets the ball get inside him.

    Analysis: Grinnage showed flashes of ability since his freshman season but never truly put a complete game together. He's a size prospect who must improve every aspect of his game to make it out of camp this August.
