He's a heck of a player. He would have been the second cornerback off the board behind Marshon Lattimore.
[Lattimore, of Ohio State, was drafted at No. 11 by the New Orleans Saints.]
You look at the start of his career to the finish: consistent player. Not the dynamic presence that Marcus Peters was at Washington, but a kid who certainly has really good ball skills.
