He's got fantastic length and range on the backend. He's quick and doesn't second guess what's happening in front of him. He can cover sideline to sideline and strikes me as a guy who develops into a fantastic Safety. His 24 tackles and 1 TFL are nice, but I think he's just scratching the surface of his upside.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1866009"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68b74f7b2dd39"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Adams is one of the fastest-rising DBs in the '27 class. He's got fantastic length and explosiveness. He's good at watching the QB's eyes in zone and jumping routes when possible. He trusts what he sees and closes without hesitation. He's off to a fast start this year as well. He had 7 tackles, 2 PBUs, and 1 interception in week 1. Adams is talented and someone who has the potential to rise to the top of the class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1866013"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68b74f7b2dda9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mitchell is a great athlete who is starting to pop on the backend. He has a good frame and looks the part. He's quick downhill and can wrap up in open space. He's good in coverage and instincts in the backend. I like his confidence on the outside and the fact that he doesn't need help over the top. Through 2 games, he's only got 5 tackles and 1 interception, but it's in part due to locking down his side in the passing game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1667738"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68b74f7b2de0a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Madison has quickly developed and become a reliable piece for the Carmel defense. He's got good feet and stays off his heels, yet can turn and run with the best of them. He'll fight through the rep all the way to the ground and knock the ball out. Through the first two weeks of this year, he has 10 tackles and his first pass breakup as Carmel's defense looks solid throughout.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1700701"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68b891a62415a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Griffin is a good cover corner who has been successful in man coverage. He's got good speed and arm length to help downfield. His timing is fairly good for PBUs and has a few to start the year. Through 2 games, he's only got 6 tackles, but because he hasn't been tested much. And when he was, he got the interception.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

The season has only just begun, but today, we're taking a look at a group of DBs who have made the most of the start of their season.
