Wake Forest's Mustapha showcases excellent run defense and blitzing skills, making him a potential asset on special teams. His coverage skills may need improvement, and his overall fluidity in movement is questioned. His tackling improved significantly in 2023​​​​.

Isaac Guerendo brings significant athleticism, evident in his 810 rushing yards and 6.1 YPA in 2023. His strengths lie in pass protection and receiving, complemented by his straight-line speed. However, he sometimes lacks decisiveness and power in his running style. Guerendo's ability to bounce off tackles without running violently is a critical area for improvement.

Jacob Cowing Draft Profile:
- The 'Good' from Chat Sports' Tom Downey (@whatgoingdowney on Twitter):

- via The Athletic's Dane Brugler:
Cowing is limited in areas by his size (smaller catch radius, average play strength), but he can separate vertically and specialize in getting open underneath. He projects as a dependable slot option and can become a regular NFL starter...
GRADE: 4th Round

- via PFF:
Cowing can win at the position despite his size, likely being below the fifth percentile in both height and weight. He's a rapid accelerator and truly gifted route runner, which allows him to create separation against any coverage or leverage.

- Downey's 'Bad':
Struggles with physical coverage; Needs to improve run blocking; Limited red zone effectiveness.

Malik Mustapha Draft Profile:
- The 'Good' from Chat Sports' Tom Downey (@whatgoingdowney on Twitter):
Explosive striker, excels in run support, disciplined in coverage​​.

- via The Athletic's Dane Brugler:
Mustapha doesn’t have the tape of an instinctive ballhawk, but he is a passionate competitor with outstanding range versus the run and disciplined movements in coverage... Should shine on special-teams coverages in the NFL and will push for defensive snaps early...
GRADE: 3rd Round (No. 84 overall)

- via PFF:
Mustapha has the skill set and mentality of a throwback strong safety. He does not have the fluidity or long speed to be relied upon in single-high roles but his toughness power and motor make him an ideal depth safety to draft and develop likely starting with a special teams role.

Isaac Guerendo Draft Profile:
- The 'Good' from Chat Sports' Tom Downey (@whatgoingdowney on Twitter):
Strong athletic profile; excels in zone schemes; untapped potential due to limited previous usage.

- via The Athletic's Dane Brugler:
Guerendo doesn’t have an impressive body of work, but his build, explosiveness and ability on passing downs (blocking and receiving) suggest his NFL resume will far out shine what he did in college — if he can stay healthy.
GRADE: 4th-5th Round

- via PFF:
Guerendo has an NFL-level floor as a third-down back. He must continue to improve his vision and decisiveness to become an early-down contributor.
