Sidney Walton

Verified at 6-foot-1 and 185-pounds plus in February of 2024, possesses growth potential to add additional weight to his frame as evidenced by his 6-foot-5 plus wingspan. Displays above average athleticism primarily positioned at the corner spot, showing the ability to utilize his length and physicality to his advantage in press coverage. Moves well in short areas for his size, demonstrating the ability to get in and out of breaks efficiently with very little wasted movement. Lack of suddenness and recovery speed on the perimeter suggest he will ultimately transition to a nickel safety role at the next level where his traits are best suited matching up with tight ends and bigger bodied receivers closer to the line of scrimmage. Possesses the physical clay to develop into a contributor and eventual starter at a Power Four program, in addition to providing depth and special teams value by year two.
