Round 2, Pick 54 - Cincinnati Bengals - Carlos Dunlap


Carlos Dunlap, DE, Florida
Ht: 6’ 5 ¾” Wt:  277

EMQB’s analysis on the pick:  The Bengals are not afraid to take players who are are superior athletes but have motivational issues.  Dunlap is the perfect case of a first-round athlete with mid-round results in his play.  

Pro Football Weekly’s scouting report: Inconsistent, enigmatic, developing pass rusher who is still growing into his frame and dripping with potential. Possesses a unique combination of size, length and athletic ability to disrupt offenses, but has unnerving underachiever traits that make him a big-time boom-or-bust investment. His mental fortitude will be tested, and he easily could be chewed up by NFL offensive linemen upon his arrival. Has some similarities to Arizona Cardinals 2008 second-rounder Calais Campbell but is not as big and even more unrefined at this stage in his development.
NFL projection: Second- to third-round pick.

Lindy’s Sports scouting report:  Being suspended just days before the SEC title game last year clouds Dunlap’s status.  Scouts are giving him a high grade due to his rare frame and versatility, but his alcohol-related arrest, and the timing and details of that event, might give some teams pause.
