Another player I’ve previously expressed interest in, Navy quarterback Malcolm Perry is one of the most unique prospects in the 2020 NFL Draft pool.
Perry is too undersized to be a quarterback at 5-foot-9 and 190 pounds, but he has the ability to be a versatile weapon as a gadget quarterback, running back or wide receiver depending on the circumstances.
Perry is a project. Teams have to figure out what to do with him and then both acclimate him to the NFL while best utilizing his talents.
In other words, a perfect prospect for head coach/evil offensive genius Kyle Shanahan.
We’ve seen Deebo Samuel utilized similarly at both receiver and running back, and the 49ers could be even more unpredictable with a similar player in Perry.
Perry will be a selection fairly late in the draft, and he could be a potent weapon for a team that knows how to use him properly.
