Cons

  • There is a lot of missed action due to injury, including one entire season. 
  • He has limitations working in man coverage. 
  • Domann needs more burst to close. 
  • His wingspan isn't great. 
  • The length is a little concerning. 
  • There have been issues wrapping up due to length. 
  • He will be older than most teams want at 25 years old for a rookie. 
  • He has a bad habit of lowering his eyes into contact and missing. 

Overview

Domann is such an interesting prospect because of his time starting as a corner. He played extremely good football there, and it showed how versatile he could be for a defense. However, the versatility won't be as great at the NFL level, and he will be more limited to being a traditional linebacker. 

His instincts consistently put him in a good position, and he flows with the play quite well. Even as a linebacker, he has the versatility to play multiple roles with a defense and play in multiple schemes. So there is still a lot of value with Domann for NFL teams. 

Fit with Broncos

If the Denver Broncos want another instinctive linebacker who can play multiple roles, Domann would be a good option. There is the ability to contribute right away on special teams and have a role on defense. His ability to contribute right away is because of the athleticism, instincts, and football IQ that he brings. 

Denver is still looking for additional linebacker help, and Domann fits what they're looking for. While he isn't the caliber of athlete they have looked for at the position, he is still more than capable. Domann doesn't have much upside, with most of his concerns being injury history and size concerns. He fits the scheme Denver runs and would be a price they could use as additional depth and on special teams. 

Grade: Late Round 3

Where he Goes: Early/Mid Round 4
