Jimmy 2 Times Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 I wasn't aware you could draft CFL players. I guess the only rule is you must be three years removed from high school regardless of where you spent those years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry McCockinner Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 The highlights don't show much in terms of coverage. He's mostly taking advantage of terrible QB play. But he looks to have very good ball skills and is a good hitter/willing tackler. Looks to have a very good wing span too. I wonder if they're looking at him as a FS? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varjet Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 I am not worrying about this pick. Saleh and Ulbrich have an excellent track record in spotting and developing DB and LB talent. We have bigger problems. Travis was on the list of QB possibilities. I am not worrying about him either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His sticky, tight coverage skills were pretty evident in the video clips of the East West Shrine Bowl practices that I think Maynard posted on his original thread. He was only thrown at once in the actual game and broke up that pass, as he had been doing all week, and then not one QB threw his way for the rest of the game.... Think about that last statement... that shows rare respect and possible fear during a top showcase game! I agree with you about his ball skills and tackling and one video stated he is definitely being looked at as a safety 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vader Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 haven't watched these yet but the eyes on the QB skill is more of a zone scheme asset for CB, or for a safety in either scheme 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
