Notre Dame Football: Where will the Irish’s draft prospects land?

5. Myron Tagovailoa-Amosa: 6th round/Priority Free Agent

Myron Tagovailoa-Amosa, the cousin of Tua and Taulia, is your classic tweener. Tagovailoa-Amosa is not big enough to hold up on the inside against NFL interior linemen but is not an elite enough athlete to play against NFL-level tackles.

There is a lot to love about the Hawai’i native despite his physical limitations. Tagovailoa has excellent feet and hands when engaging a defender. Also, his high motor makes him a constant disruptor in the backfield, even when someone else makes the play.

Scouts love his hustle. Tagovailoa-Amosa often tracks down plays from the backside because he never gives up. Though he can be disruptive, he rarely makes the play himself.

Tagovailoa projects as a precise scheme fit or subpackage player. A team could bring him in on 3rd and long as part of a pass rush package. However, versatility is more important than being specialized in today’s game.

Tagovailoa-Amosa’s size will make it difficult for him to make a roster, but he could be a practice squad player as he adds weight and strength to play on the interior. He does not have the quick-twitch quickness to play on the edge but could develop into a serviceable interior lineman.
