The Good
– Big energy guy hyping up teammates after a big play
– Able to jump routes and capitalize on poor throws due to his wide receiver background
– Great size if a team decides to play him at safety and elite size if it plays him at corner
– Pretty solid tackler in the open field
– Most interceptions in school history
– Mid-play communication will really help his stock
– Athletic bloodlines
The Bad
– Turning 23 as a rookie isn’t ideal
– Tendency to arm tackle due to taking bad angles against the run
– Not an elite-level athlete, which can make him a mismatch in the slot at the next level
– False steps have made him fall behind when covering tight ends in man
– Played boundary CB in 2021 where he looked lost and struggled to flip his hips
