Cam Taylor-Britt is another kid that I went to see play a few times when he was in high school here for Park Crossing - hell of a quarterback in high school. His parents were wanting him to go to Auburn but the staff never did offer him in time so he soft-committed to Missouri before finally deciding on Nebraska. Fantastic athlete that can play safety or corner - and return punts. Reminds me a little bit of Jevon Holland.

Jevon Holland has been fantastic for us. Another one like him and this defense is set up for years.
 
I like Cam Taylor-Britt as a Derwin James type...

He'd be perfect in a Big Nickel and as much as I don't care for Flores, he knows how to be ambiguous to opposing QB's with the different looks. This guy could play all over that defense.
 
Someone named their son Coby Bryant? What dicks 😆. Don't worry son, you may not be the best, but you won't be an original either.
 
Can really see why you like Taylor-Britt. He reminds me a little of a bigger DJ Reed, who has played well with Seattle despite being put on the outside at 5'9 and without great speed.
 
Cornerbacks did not test, except Zyon McCollum. Id take him if available on Day 3, he is Day 2 value, round 2.
Otherwise, Im not interested in this class of CBs.
 
Tariq Woolen is a kid I struggle with. To me he’s reminiscent of a kid like Obi Melifonwu - 6’4”, 224 pounds that ran 4.4, jumped 44” and had damn near a 12 foot broad jump. Generational numbers, but was just a terrible football player.

It seems like every couple of years you get some smaller school DB invited to the combine that checks in at 6’3” or 6’4”, weighs north of 205, runs 4.3 in a straight line, jumps out of the stadium, and is never heard from again.

There’s a reason why you don’t see 6’4”, 205 cornerbacks that run 4.3 playing in the NFL and locking down receivers. It’s because humans like that don’t exist.

It defies physics for someone that high cut to be able to change directions at the speed of a high level football game.

On tape Woolen struggles to flip his hips and run, as you’d expect. I watched former Western Kentucky and new Penn St. receiver Mitchell Tinsley just run by him all game to the tune of 9/173/2.

I’m very skeptical of this kid. I don’t think you can line him up and use his length to press because he can’t flip his hips.

Only thing you can do is try him at safety or try to fit him into a Cover-2 type defense where your corners play zone. But those guys are also smaller because you have to be able to click and close in an instant...like Ronde Barber.

One mistake or delay there and the opposing band is playing.

IF the players as a group refused to test would you punt on an entire Draft?

I can see a time coming pretty soon where the players are going to say F You to The Combine without the NFL paying them for their time and injury risk.

I would. I would sign a DB if I needed one.
 
Slimm, J, any thoughts on Kalen Barnes, slimm had him in his top 5..

he's now a dolphin.

Top 5 Senior Cornerbacks. Not top 5 Cornerbacks. There’s a difference.

Barnes is a WR convert a lot like Igbo. But can run like the wind. Probably needs a little more time and refinement, because he’s stiff. Has a hard time staying on the hip in and out of breaks.

There’s not too many guys out there that can run like that though.

Ultimately, Miami is a team that needs all the help they can get at the cornerback position. Purely a perimeter guy. No slot or inside potential there.
