Scouting Report: Strengths
  • He’s effective in pursuit when chasing down backs as a run defender, and Lasater has the athleticism to cover a lot of ground when dropping into coverage.
  • Shows a burst to close. Flashes explosive hitting ability and good lateral and downfield pursuit.
  • He’s an instinctive and active chase-and-tackle 4-3 Will, with the speed to go sideline to sideline. Lasater takes excellent angles. He also has an innate sense for shooting gaps as a run defender.
  • A chase-and-tackle Will prospect, he is instinctive, reading and reacting quickly and showing the ability to absolutely fly around the field.
  • He disrupts plays in the backfield regularly. He also has the agility and pure speed to cover sideline to sideline, moving like a safety and then finishing as a violent and consistent tackler.
  • Lasater has the kind of turn-and-run fluidity to be used in man coverage as well, able to run with tight ends and running backs.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Lasater lacks the speed of a chase and- tackle guy. Lasater lacks twitch as a pass rusher and lacks the feet and flexibility to threaten around the edge.
  • Occasionally overruns plays due to aggressive nature. Hesitates when facing running back Blocks while rushing the passer.
  • As a run defender, he’s too much of a grab-and-drag tackler, lacking violence and too frequently allowing running backs to escape.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
