Jaeden Gould

Size and wingspan not verified, but possesses good height and appears to own corresponding frame length. Build translates to P5 level as a position-versatile defensive back. Very competitive. Plays a physical brand of coverage. Will mix it up at the snap and continue downfield. Disruptive at the catch point. Shows some solid anticipatory skills. Limited opportunities as a tackler, but shows obvious willingness with the requisite size to make an impact against the run game when needed. Functional athlete on the field in most situations, but athleticism lacks any context in the form of verified testing, track and field, or other sports. Shows requisite linear closing speed in pursuit, but can improve ability to open up top-end speed in turn-and-run situations. Fluidity and redirecting explosion can improve. A bit mechanical in backpedal and flip at times. Improving ball skills will increase impact playmaking ability. High-major defensive back prospect with ample experience at corner plus physical specs and play style to fit safety and nickel as well. Should become quality P5 starter with long-term potential beyond college.
