Myron Cunningham NFL Draft Profile
|
Myron Cunningham Scouting ReportMyron is a long limbed prospect. He has borderline functional strength. His frame makes reps difficult for defensive ends to create pressure and have an effect on plays because of the challenges that is presents with getting around it cleanly. When he is able to cleanly land his hands in the target areas, his excellent grip strength ables him to lockout and extend. He has a massive reach makes it nearly impossible for non creative rushers to surpass him in a timely manner.

Areas for ImprovementCunningham sits back in a relaxed position in his pass sets. He reacts to the movement of edge rushers can be a constant problem. When operating mostly from a crouched position, he has lean issues with playing too forward. It often makes it seems as if he is lunging forward and looks like he is routinely off balance. Cunningham plays with an already labored lower half that is not quite as twitchy as needed. He must be refined with an active upper body that is able to marry up with quick reactionary skills. He will need to continue to develop his core strength and maturity from the waist down to continue to evolve his anchor to sustain strength at the point of attack. His flexibility issues are apparent as he is still growing into what remains a gangle overall frame.
