Young is a good fit for a diverse defensive scheme that prioritizes athletic, versatile defensive backs who can contribute in multiple coverage roles.
As a rookie, Young should compete for nickel corner duties and develop into a starting slot/boundary corner by his second or third season.
He would be a poor fit for a Cover 2 scheme that relies on bigger, more physical corners.
Young's athleticism and quickness make him a valuable asset in today's pass-heavy NFL, particularly in sub-packages.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
