These terms may be used to describe late-round picks or specific positions, such as quarterbacks or defensive players.
NFL Draft Terms: 'Sand' and 'Red Star': In the NFL draft, 'sand' refers to players needing more lower body weight, while 'red star' signifies high confidence in a player's potential.
In the NFL draft, the term "sand" is used to describe football players who could benefit from having more weight, particularly in their lower body.

Another term used is "red star," which refers to a player that a team's front office has high confidence in and is willing to stake their reputation on. For example, a GM might say, "My red star guy is Justin Fields," indicating that they believe Fields will be a successful player for their team. Additionally, some players are criticized for being underweight, such as Davonte Smith, who was listed at 175 pounds during the season but weighed in at 166 pounds at the NFL combine. Given his size and the historical trend of teams drafting larger, faster wide receivers in the top 10, it's unlikely that Smith will be taken that high in the draft.

NFL draft decisions are not solely based on college statistics or awards. Jason Owey, a Penn State player with no sacks, is expected to be a first or second-round pick despite his lack of production. Teams value potential and trust their coaching staff to develop players. However, body type and weight are also important considerations. For instance, Jeremiah Owusu Koromoa, a Notre Dame linebacker, weighs significantly less than expected, which could pose injury risks. Devonte Smith, a small but tough wide receiver, also faces doubts about his ability to add weight and sustain an NFL frame. Ultimately, draft decisions involve a complex evaluation of various factors beyond just statistics and awards.
