Alex Carter selected in the 3rd round, 80th overall by the Detroit Lions
As the NFL progresses and gets older there is one aspect of the game that has not changed, the importance of a good coverage CB. Alex Carter has the "NFL type" measurables being 6'0" and 196-lbs, with good size Carter could become a corner not to be trifled with. In today's day and age, the NFL thirsts for tall physical corners such as a Richard Sherman or Jimmy Smith. Carter embodies the size and strength to play in the league, which is vastly needed against these new wave of tall WRs.
