NFL Summer Scouting continues with a film-room breakdown of three linebacker prospects who could become major risers in the next NFL Draft: Xavier Atkins, Drayk Bowen, and Arion Carter. As the modern NFL places an even greater premium on athletic, instinctive, and versatile linebackers, these three defenders have the tools to develop into impact starters at the next level.

In this episode, we study the film to evaluate each player's strengths, weaknesses, athletic profile, football IQ, and long-term NFL projection. We break down Xavier Atkins' sideline-to-sideline range, instincts, and tackling ability, Drayk Bowen's physicality, processing speed, downhill play style, and leadership qualities, and Arion Carter's explosiveness, coverage ability, versatility, and upside as a three-down linebacker.
