|  | | Had four INTs as a senior...A mainstay at corner over final two seasons at Virginia Tech...A standout special teams contributor...One of the fastest players in this draft class with legitimate sub-4.4 speed in the 40-yard dash...Accelerates quickly and closes on the ball in a hurry...Moves feet effortlessly in the backpedal...Is a capable tackler against the run...Biggest knock is a lack of physicality...Not suited to play press coverage...Needs to improve tackling technique...Much better in zone coverage than man coverage.
