Xzavier brings elite length to the CB position There aren’t many 6’3″ CBs that can play at the line of scrimmage and press receivers. McGruder has the speed to run deep downfield, stride for stride with receivers. He flashes quick feet and hips that allow him to change direction and flip his hips in man coverage or when reacting in zone coverage. Xzavier shows recovery speed, and he plays the ball in the air like a receiver. You see him catch it with his hands and high point it in traffic. He holds an offer from Kent State. Don’t miss out on this kid.
