Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Has a quick burst off the line and times the snap well. Good upper-body strength and length to lock-out his opponent and at least moderate lateral agility to slide inside or spill out to contain.
  • Possesses the length and power to ward off offensive tackles.
  • McGuire has an excellent motor and shows the stamina to last deep into the fourth quarter.
  • Quick first step with fluid movements off the ball. Highly competitive and fierce, showing relentless effort to the pocket with a nonstop motor
  • Naturally explosive player with decent get-off speed. Balanced through contact and stout against double-teams. Tackles through the ball. Versatile and has the body type to play many roles.
  • He can dip around the edge, using quick, heavy hands effectively to ward off blockers. McGuire has outstanding range when McGuire has to chase in backside pursuit, displaying surprising range for a player his size.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • While McGuire moves well laterally, he doesn’t always get there in pursuit.
  • McGuire remains a bit raw, as he is inconsistent with his hand use and lacks violence in his hands
  • He struggles to shed blockers and doesn’t show ideal lateral movement skills. McGuire also needs to make better use of his length and hands in the pass rush.

*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.
