The San Diego State Aztecs have four draft-eligible prospects to keep an eye on: RB Donnel Pumphrey, No. 19; OG Nico Siragusa, No. 56; OLB Calvin Munson, No. 54; and CB Damontae Kazee, No. 23.

RB Donnel Pumphrey, No. 19, is a dynamic explosive versatile football player and a true home run threat. Although not a hulking powerful running back, Pumphrey bursts and hits the hole with authority, maintains low pad-level squirming his way to daylight exploding and separating from defenders with excellent vision, speed, elusiveness, and impressive strength. Pumphrey displays the Frank Gore factor in finding and slipping through dime-sized holes like a mouse, breaking tackles with impressive yards after contact and a knack for falling forward for extra yards. A nightmare in space, Pumphrey has tremendous change of directions skills running and making cuts with minimal loss of speed. A natural pass catcher, he also displays excellent receiving skills with solid hands, impressive ball skills, a smooth route runner, and terrific suddenness in and out of his breaks. Pumphrey is not a typical complimentary scatback, but a true well-rounded workhouse with an impressive inside and outside game, solid instincts, enough strength to pick up the difficult yards running through tackles, the suddenness to make defenders miss, a threat as a receiver, and a dominant playmaker in space. His size will be an issue for some NFL teams with durability being an area of concern.

OG Nico Siragusa, No. 56, is a massive big-bodied offensive lineman with great size (6'5" - 330 lbs.), strength, athleticism, instincts, and power. A true human road grader, Siragusa brings tremendous power and a strong base excelling in the run game driving defenders from the action, and the toughness finishing blocks all the way to the whistle. The former high school baseball and basketball athlete also displays nimble feet (foot agility) for a man his size, showing his athletic ability in pass protection sliding laterally adjusting to movement. He has shown improvement in his game, particularly in pass protection, and will fit best in a power-based run scheme at the next level. Brings durability starting every single game the past two seasons.
