The Tuck brothers Jorel and Ja’brill are two late round prospects that are entering the draft in the coming weeks. Each player comes with some baggage and various on and off the field issues that are pushing them down draft boards across the National Simulation Football League. However, both brothers are raw prospects with extremely high ceilings if they are utilized in the proper system and put in positions to succeed.
Jorel Tuck is the older of the two and currently plans to line up as a tight end in the league. Following his final season at Cal Jorel declared for the National Simulation Football League’s season 12 draft knowing that there was a chance that he would go undrafted due to off the field issues. However, with a 6’6” frame and a stout 265 lbs. Jorel Tuck has shown that he has many of the measurables that are desirable in professional tight ends in the National Simulation Football League. Jorel Tuck led all tight ends in the NCAA in yards, receptions, touchdowns, yards after the catch, and total snaps. However, in addition to his soft hands and crisp routes he has shown strength with the ball in his hands and as a blocker. While Jorel is a willing blocker he is not quite up to the National Simulation Football League blocking standards, but it is an area where it looks like he can improve.
Ja’Brill Tuck is another physical specimen that some general managers just may have their eye on, despite concerns about a lack of dedication to the game and a strong personality. Ja’Brill Tuck is also 6’6” but weights a slightly heavier 300 lbs due to his position on the defensive line. Ja’Brill Tuck’s defining characteristic is his speed around the edge and his extremely fast first step. It is going to be rare that he is overpowering offensive tackles in the National Simulation Football League but he has the ability to bend and beat them with his quickness. While he is currently looking like he would be best suited to spend his rookie season as a rotational pass rusher while he bulks up and goes through a National Simulation Football League level strength and conditioning program he has faced National Simulation Football League level talent during his time at Ole Miss and could be a solid every down player if he is put in the position where it is necessary.
So, what is the caveat with these two brothers? They have had issues in the past that has made it difficult for them to “mesh” with a locker room and have both just completed their college playing time at different universities. Thus, their biggest priority coming into the National Simulation Football League is that the Tuck brother, Jorel and Ja’Brill play together on the same team. Obviously, the draft process does not permit players to determine their own destiny but the player’s associated has afforded both Tuck brothers the freedom to sign deals in length and values that they see fit.
Jorel Tuck has been quoted saying, “I do not plan on holding out from a team because they do not draft my brother. But I do not see us signing long term deals on different teams either. I am committed to playing at least 3 season with the team that drafts me. As for Ja’Brill, I cannot speak to whether or not he will hold out, but he has been known to be a bit unreliable.”
It will be interesting to see if Ja’Brill is willing to assure general managers he will not hold out if he ends up away from his brother, but for now we are going to have to chalk this up to another risk associated with these two Tuck brothers.
