Pros

Cons

Overall

Alex Carrington is a player that will be highly valued by almost every team because of his size and schematic versatility. Carrington will most likely fit best play the 5 technique in a 3-4, as he is very strong against the run, great in gap control, and has the strength to get penetration up the middle. Although he was able to be productive in college with just a bull rush, he will need to add some more pass rushing moves to be a productive pass rusher at the next level. Carrington has a little maturing to do as a player, but it shouldn't be long before he is an effective starter, and should have a lengthy N.F.L career. Carrington will get picked at some point during the second round, more than likely by a 3-4 team.
