David Cormier is such an interesting prospect and his ascension to the Senior Bowl watchlist in 2023 after playing his first seven career games is extraordinary. He didn’t play in his first four years of college football, due to personal circumstances throughout his career. However, once he got on the field in 2021, he was a good run blocker and showed good receiver ability. It’s clear that he has a lot to learn at the next level, but his chances of playing in the NFL are legitimate.
