Expert Analysis
Robert King | Prep Redzone Scout
Smart, intuitive player, good decision maker, not vulnerable in conflict. One of the best pound for pound players in Hampton Roads. Either a CB or slot receiver next level. Could play in the slot, field, or boundary next level depending on situation or team needs. As a CB, does a good job in both man and zone. In zone, shows great discipline, makes good decisions about when to come up in run support. Shows great footwork, back pedaling, COD, and hip flexibility. Never takes a play off. Like his ability to guard slot receivers because of COD. Not a huge kid, but scrappy, competes, sheds blocks, and takes on RB. Has strong hands and good wingspan. Shows trigger, breaks on the ball well, very good situational awareness. Questions of size and strength. A long, blocking WR could have his way with him. Can overachieve, just a question of what level he fits in at, projected D3/D2 starter, all conference upside. Always does his job, never out of position. Coachable, student-athlete. Has HSC, CNU offers, South Carolina State interest.
