Hager ran a 4.60 had 26 rep 35 vert see his old draft bio

I am happy about re-signing. In my view, while Hager is not essential and he is a bit light he has range. He has been around long enough to be a steady hand and is young enough to bring something useful on teams and in depth.

BRYCE HAGER
BAYLOR BIG 12
DRAFTED BY: RAMS ROUND 7 PICK 7 OVERALL 224
GRADE 5.07
COMBINE RESULTS
4.60 SEC 40 yard
26 REPS bench
35.0 INCH vert
117.0 INCH broad
7.15 SEC 3 cone
4.36 SEC Shuttle
DRAFT ANALYSIS:
"This is a good fit for a developmental player that needed a strong defensive line keeping him clean. Coaches will like his range and tackling ability." --Mark Dulgerian
HEIGHT 6'1"
ARM LENGTH 31 3/8"
WEIGHT 234LBS.
HANDS 9"
ANALYSIS
STRENGTHS Once he diagnoses, can explode to the ball. Great pursuit on the perimeter against run. Moves with ease laterally and chases with good angles. Former running back with a muscular build and expected to have good speed scores at his workout. Shows good range in coverage and can play man or zone effectively against the pass.
WEAKNESSES Not a downhill linebacker. Won't beat offensive linemen to the spot against run. Delays in diagnosing interior runs. Play speed is inconsistent. Doesn't bring strong thump behind his pads as a hitter when asked to be face-up tackler. Needs to be clean and free-running to the ball to be effective.
DRAFT PROJECTION Round 6 or 7
SOURCES TELL US "The only way I could see him playing inside is if a team is 2-gapping up front and keeping him clean. I think he has to be a 4-3 outside 'backer. I might want to see if he can catch the ball at all because he could have some fullback potential." -- NFC area scout
NFL COMPARISON Colin McCarthy
BOTTOM LINE With his burst to the ball and ability to cover, Hager would be best suited for a 4-3 defense looking for an athletic linebacker who can make plays outside of his area. Hager might end up a late-round pick, but teams like his production and chase traits.
