About Cyril
Expert Analysis
Matt Tate | Prep Redzone Scout
Yanney is a developing corner measuring in at 5’9 150-pounds. He has good athletic ability due to good acceleration, speed, change of direction, and jumping. Good jamming the WR and re-route attempts. Yanney demonstrates a good back pedal with solid torso fluidity. Does a great job in run support. Good block shedding and get off speed to disengage wideout blocks. Yanney gets low to tackle and makes sure the ball carrier stays down. With an off-season focused on refining his technique, I’m looking forward to see how he does this upcoming season.

Read EvaluationRobert Davis | Prep Redzone Scout
Yanney is in a position to make his varsity debut this season and he brings intriguing tools to the table. He’s quick in and out of his breaks, with smooth transitions that allow him to mirror receivers in man coverage. Yanney will benefit from spending another offseason in the same system, giving him familiarity with the scheme and room to improve his physicality. Adding strength will be key, but the natural athleticism is there. If he puts it all together with speed, technique, and physical development, he could emerge as one of the more versatile DBs in this class. He’s definitely an up and coming prospect to monitor.
