Strengths:
Very good athlete...Excellent speed and quickness with a burst to close...Adequate bulk...Outstanding instincts...Great hands...Nice ball skills and body control...Good leaper...Very active...Pretty tough and physical...Displays terrific footwork...Flips his hips well...Decent tackler...Will come up and support the run...Dangerous runner in the open field...Could also offer value as a return man...Has a lot of experience...Top competitor..Supremely confident...Very productive.
Weaknesses:
Does not have the height you look for...Too aggressive at times...A bit of a gambler and will take some unnecessary risks...Can be inconsistent when it comes to being physical...Struggles to match up with bigger wideouts...Will get overpowered and needs to get stronger.
Notes:
Was a four-year starter in the ACC...First team All-American as a senior...Was named All-ACC as a junior and a senior...Holds the ACC record for career interceptions...A true playmaker and ballhawk who will make quarterbacks pay for their mistakes...There isn't much not to like about this guy other than his lack of prototypical height...Would get selected much earlier if he were 2 or 3 inches taller.
