2021 Draft Scouting Report of DT Alim McNeill

The NFL features a draft profile from Lance Zierlein, who is a longtime talent evaluator. Alim was compared with Khalen Saunders, a third-round pick by the Chiefs in 2019 who was a crucial part of Kansas City's defensive line rotation in the Super Bowl-winning season.

According to Zierlein, McNeill lacks optimal length but carries plenty of base strength and upper-body explosiveness. However, McNeill lined up over the nose, which did him a disservice with his athletic traits and overall stability.

Zierlein even added that "Alim is a good athlete who is not necessarily cat-quick but he relies more on power than first-step penetration quickness. He is like a rotational nose early in his career and has a chance to develop into a starter."
