Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Has enough twitch and speed to make an impact coming off the edge as a third-down specialist.
  • Banks has good quickness and an excellent understanding of angles, often beating blockers to the spot.
  • Handles misdirection well with quick change-of-direction ability. Comes downhill quickly against the run when Banks has an open lane.
  • He’s very good in coverage when looking into the backfield in zone coverage.
  • Can attack the edge with speed and has the flexibility to dip low and under the tackle's reach.
  • Closes quickly on relatively immobile quarterbacks. A consistently heavy hitter who flashes explosiveness and the ability to separate the ball.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Generally an effective openfield tackler but doesn't wrap up consistently. Shows only average awareness in coverage.
  • Banks is on the small side, and his frame is pretty much maxed out. Despite his effort and intensity, he’ll simply get swallowed up at times.
  • Loses size battle to many tight ends and is easily pushed away on out routes.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
