MONARCHS DRAFT OKLAHOMA LB MONROE



ROUND 4 PICK 14
PEARSON MONROE
LB | OKLAHOMA
6'5" | 238 | 21

Monroe came to Oklahoma as an edge rusher but injuries and lack of depth had him moving to inside linebacker midway through his junior year. He led the team in tackles despite only starting eight games. Some hoped he would stay another yea and polish his skills but he declared. Monroe is a solid tackler who hits hard. He needs some polish but has high upside.

Pick Grade: C, There were more experienced players available and other positions that should have been a higher priority.

Combine Results
40 Yard Dash: 4.72
Vert Jump: 32.0"
Broad Jump: 9'7"
Three Cone: 7.38
20 Yd Shuttle: 4.52
Bench Press: 26

MONARCHS WRAP UP 4TH ROUND BY PICKING OT ROUNDTREE



ROUND 4 PICK 31
JEROME ROUNDTREE
OT | RUTGERS
6'5" | 319 | 23

Roundtree is a balanced but raw offensive linesman who most likely fits as a right tackle at the NFL level. He improved his pass blocking as a senior and went from a player that probably would not have been drafted to one that was a lock for a late round pick. He's very strong but could improve his run blocking against bigger defenders.

Pick Grade: C, most people will see this pick as a bit of a reach. Again, the staff wanted to improve the offensive line a lot and went for bulk picks at the position.

Combine Results
40 Yard Dash: 5.30
Vert Jump: 26.2"
Broad Jump: 10'0"
Three Cone: 7.47
20 Yd Shuttle: 4.60
Bench Press: 35
