strengths

weaknesses

• He is a cerebral player who reads and knows the concepts of offensive formations and plays recognition.
  
• He has excellent awareness and will identify screens and avoid the blockers to make the tackle.
  
• He is one of the scrappiest cornerbacks, a ball hawk with a knack for finding the ball. He is aggressive and seizes on the opportunity to rise to make a break on the ball.
  
• He does not have the height to play outside cornerback but has the skills to play outside.
  
• He has quick feet and fluid hips to open up and run with the receiver.
  
• He has good recognition in the red zone and timely makes plays to prevent scores.
  
• He will highpoint the ball and use his impressive leaping ability against the taller, more athletic receivers.
  

• He does not play much press coverage, as he tends to play off coverage against the receiver, which leads to easy receptions.
  
• He peeks at the quarterback and loses focus on the receiver, who will slip behind him for a deep pass down the field.
• He will take poor angles to make tackles.
• He underestimates his timing when breaking the ball and misses badly.​

Draft Projection: 5th - 7th Round
