2020 NFL Draft Scouting Report
Terrell Lewis, OLB, Alabama Crimson Tide
Positives
Productive three-down linebacker with a developing game. Breaks down well and moves smoothly and fluidly to every area of the field. Explosive, displays good change-of-direction skills and effectively fights with his hands. Occasionally comes out of a three-point stance, plays with excellent pad level and keeps his feet moving.
Forceful up the field, displays a variety of moves and rushes the passer effectively both out of a three-point stance and standing over tackle. Pursues the play from the backside with speed and shows the ability to bend off the edge.
Negatives
Must improve his strength at the point and ability to defeat blocks. Easily outpositioned from the action by larger tackles.
Analysis
Except for the injury which kept him on the sidelines in 2018, Lewis was a productive front-seven defensive player who showed consistent progress during his career at Alabama. If he checks out medically, he could be a terrific Day 2 selection who would be best at outside linebacker in a 3-4 alignment.
