Trotter brings the downhill force that can change the texture of the middle. He is close enough to the starting conversation that every coverage rep matters; the run-game physicality is already the calling card.

Strengths: Second-round investment, downhill tackling, real competition for a starting role, and high-contact defensive temperament.

Weaknesses: Coverage was not his primary college calling card, and he must master NFL space responsibilities to overtake the incumbent.
