Before Saturday's Cricket MEAC/SWAC Challenge Kickoff, we ranked the 10 best HBCU seniors who could be on next year's NFL draft radar.
Dankwah was originally a soccer player during his upbringing in Ghana before moving to Canada, which might have helped his quickness and suddenness. He is massive at 6-foot-8 and 365 pounds, but Dankwah is also a good mover for his size and is able to match the upfield movements of FCS rushers.
He has primarily played left tackle during his career with the Bison, and he seems to get better each season. Dankwah only started playing football in his junior year of high school, so he's still working on the details of pass protection, though his wide frame makes it challenging for defenders to get around.
"With those bigger offensive lineman, you always ask, how well do they move?" said an AFC scout."He shows good movement skills, but I want to see him at an all-star game. That'll be a great test for him because no one in the FCS is getting around him at that size." Dankwah was a key part in helping Howard win a share of the MEAC for the first time since 1993 last season, and another good year could put him in the draft conversation. Offensive tackle Marques Ogden was the last offensive Bison player drafted, when the Jaguars took him in the sixth round of the 2003 draft.
