Cover-3 match with complementary man principles
Immediate special teams contributor with the upside to develop into a reliable nickel corner or depth boundary option within two seasons.
Man-heavy schemes that frequently ask corners to press and trail opposing receivers across the field without safety help.
Mager's athletic profile and physicality suggest he can find a role in zone-heavy defenses, but his lack of elite footwork and quickness limits his upside in exclusive man-to-man coverage.
Selected #83 overall in Round 3 of the 2015 NFL Draft by San Diego Chargers out of Texas State.
