5 draft targets to watch after the 2022 Senior Bowl

Jalen Pitre: Saftey, Baylor

We mentioned Pitre as someone to look out for before the start of Senior Bowl week, and he confirmed what we thought. The versatility was on display as he spent time in the slot, near the line of scrimmage, and as a deep safety. And appeared to hold his own at all three positions.

When you read the recaps on Pitre, the thing that continued to be mentioned was his quickness and spatial awareness.

Scout used a lot of cliches, and one that I’m sure will be used a ton for Pitre is that “all he does is make plays.” And it might be true this time around

And as a bonus, it does not seem like Pitre lacks anything as an athlete, making him even more intriguing. His size (5’10, 196) might be a bit slight for his playstyle, but he continues to show that he plays far above his listed measurements.
