Best role

Immediate starter with All-Pro potential, capable of tracking the opponent's best receiver.

Wrong fit

Pure press-man only schemes that don't allow for zone principles.

A versatile corner whose athleticism and instincts allow him to thrive in a variety of coverages, with the potential to be a perennial Pro Bowler.

04The evaluation
