Tyler Baron NFL Combine Results and Draft Profile

There is a lot to like about Baron if you're an NFL team. While he doesn't profile as an elite edge rusher, he does profile as much more than a rotational piece because of everything else he can do. His high motor and impressive ability to set the edge can keep him on the field for a ton of snaps. Those are things that young edge rushers often struggle with. The fact that he also has the versatility to stand up as a linebacker or put his hand in the dirt as a defensive end will also go a long way in boosting his draft stock. There is no doubt that plenty of NFL teams will view him a valuable defensive piece through the draft process. We project him to be a much better player on film than his stats might show on the next level.
