Francisco Mauigoa is the kind of player who may never be a true superstar, but his play style will make him a fan favorite. He has a combination of intelligence and grit that you love to see in a football player. What he lacks in elite athleticism he makes up for with off-the-chart instincts and strong playmaking ability. There is a chance that he will take some time to develop in the NFL, however, he will make his impact felt on special teams immediately. We have also seen him display incredible work ethic and improve noticeably every year while in college and there is no reason to believe that trend will stop on the next level.
