In What Round?...

in what round would you all take a chance on a 5'9" 185 lbs Corner Back?

most would say i wouldn't touch him until Day 3, strictly based on size

but there is this kid out of Louisiana Tech that i'm completely memorized by at the moment

Amik Robertson

i don't think i've ever seen a CB with this type of play-making ability at this position

i mean an absolute nose for the football

he diagnoses underneath routes to perfection

any short route caught is stopped relatively immediately because of his lightning quick burst towards the receiver on such plays

instinctually, he reads route combinations extremely well... which allows him to break on obvious holes in the defense that turn into, more-often-then-not, interceptions

his ball skills are off the chart

his reaction to Wide Receivers hands when the ball is in the air are off the charts

his tackling is textbook in reference to his size and properly protecting himself

guys...

i think we may have found Professor X's Counterpart!

just take a look at his career progression from a Freshman All-American to a future NFL Draft selection

Freshman Year (2017) - 62 tackles (51 solo), 7.5 TFL (2 sacks), 6 PBU, and 5 INT (1 returned for a TD):

Sophomore Year (2018) - 61 tackles (44 solo), 7.5 TFL (1 sack), 12 PBU, 1 FF & 1 FR, 2 blocked kicks, and 4 INT:

i don't know about you all...

but i'm taking this guy with the Dolphins New Orleans pick in the 2nd Round of this draft

its rare to come across a skilled Corner like this

undersized or not...

he's my guy!
