Makes more plays in pass coverage than expected because of his natural football instincts. Gets his hands in the passing lanes. Effort is mere in coverage.
Areas for Improvement Fagot generally an effective openfield tackler but doesn't wrap up consistently. Shows only average awareness in coverage. He possesses below-average instincts for the linebacker position. Leaves more plays on the field than he makes. He must learn to use hands to beat blocks. He locates the ball but takes circuitous routes to go get to it. Should use power and long arms to take on and disengage from blocks. Inefficient with his angles. He does not blow up targets. Many inside tackles are catch-and-drags, which will be more difficult to make at the next level.

Diego Fagot NFL Draft Player Profile First and foremost, intelligence. To become an officer in the United States military there is a lot of studying and preparation involved. As the middle linebacker, he had to be one of the smartest players, if not the smartest, on the field. He was a little extra jazzed up for the game against Army and took a couple penalties he doesn’t usually take, but he will instantly bring discipline to whatever team he joins. His intensity and passion are second to none. Fagot had 282 total tackles in his time at Navy with 9.5 sacks, three forced fumbles, and two interceptions. Due to his athleticism, he also managed to pull off a fake punt against Army which is pictured above.
