H.S. Scouting Report
Evaluated 10/05/2018
Projection
2-3 Round Day 2Slender corner with average height. Should end up in the 190-pound range. Solid athlete with good long speed and very good quickness and short area burst. Highly aggressive and excels in man-press coverage. Physical at the line and shoots his hands quickly. Smothers opposing receivers off the snap. Plays some safety for his high school team and throws his body around as a run defender. Shows quick play recognition and instincts. Has good play speed. Can improve his tackling form as he almost always goes for the big hit instead of wrapping up. Will need to improve his strength at the next level and borders on being undersized. Projects as a multi-year Power 5 starter and a second-day NFL draft choice.
