Some excerpts I found:
Listed at 6-foot-2 and 208 pounds, Simpson doesn't have the measureables that many of his counterparts have in this draft class. "His size will hurt him at the very top because teams usually chase ceilings with those QBs early on," an AFC area scout said. But despite only eight career starts, his awareness, pocket maneuverability and decision-making have him ahead of the curve. I have him graded just behind
Fernando Mendoza, making him the QB2 in this class. He just needs to be more consistent with his accuracy throughout the entirety of games.

Linebacker
Jimmy Rolder was a backup and special-teamer in his first three seasons at Michigan, but he's now thriving in a starting role. He jumps off the screen, showing high football IQ, great closing speed, outstanding coverage traits and the ability to be disruptive as a blitzer. He can stick on opponents in man-to-man, but he also routinely makes plays in zone coverage. At 6-foot-2 and 240 pounds, I have Rolder as an off-ball linebacker, but he has the versatility to slide outside, too.
Rolder had 10 tackles, two tackles for loss, a fumble recovery and a sack
against Michigan State. He now has 52 tackles on the season. He has quickly become one of the best defensive players on that Wolverines roster, and he's picking up draft interest as a result. Rolder wasn't on the radar before the season, so he's really hard to place in this class. But I'm sure scouts are taking notice of his play, and if he finishes out the season well, Rolder could be an early-rounder. Keep an eye on him.
