4. Scouting Notes
Background Profile
Da’Shawn Womack is a dynamic, high-upside pass rusher who has navigated a unique collegiate path, transitioning from Memphis to the SEC at Auburn. A standout at the renowned St. Frances Academy in Baltimore, Womack entered college with a polished athletic profile and natural twitch. Since arriving at Auburn in 2025, he has showcased an ability to impact games against elite competition, accumulating 5.0 sacks and forcing two fumbles in his debut SEC campaign.
Key Strengths
- Elite First Step: Possesses explosive initial quickness off the snap, allowing him to threaten the edge immediately and force offensive tackles to overset.
- Natural Bend & Flexibility: Demonstrates the ability to dip his shoulder and corner around the edge, maintaining his pad level through contact to reach the quarterback.
- Versatile Alignment: Shows the capability to play in a two-point or three-point stance, offering scheme versatility as either a stand-up outside linebacker or a traditional hand-in-the-dirt defensive end.
- High Motor/Effort: Displays a consistent “chase” mentality, regularly pursuing the ball carrier downfield and capitalizing on second-effort pass rush opportunities.
Developmental Focus
As he steps into a larger role for the 2026 season, Womack’s developmental focus will be on adding functional play strength to improve his effectiveness in the run game. While his pass-rush ability is clear, refining his hand-fighting technique at the point of attack will be critical to becoming a three-down defender at the NFL level. Increasing his variety of pass-rush moves—specifically his interior counter—will help him move from a pure speed rusher to a complete defensive force.
