Israel Mukuamu: Safety/cb, South Carolina

[Rayman70]

Jaycee Horn gets all the pub, but look at the starting cb opposite he. Israel looks every bit the part just as much as Horn. Where does he fit with his draft stock?

Big fan of his. Most people came to scout him and left wanting Horn.

Still think we should be able to get him around the 3rd

South Carolina season tickets holder here. He had the breakout game in 2019 against Georgia but hasn't really been stellar since. I wouldn't take him before the late 3rd or 4th

For all the drooling about long tall corners who are the good ones who came after Sherman? Dude looks trash to me

It's exactly what happened to me,

He was one of my focal points for summer scouting. A 6'4" Cornerback? Sign me up.

I like him but he struggles a little getting in and out of his breaks. Still, the good stuff greatly outweighs the bad. They say WR groups needs to be built like a basketball team (Point Guard, Small Forward, etc), so in order to defend that, you better start thinking about players like Mukuamu.

However, in film, the opposite Corner #1 kept making insane plays and I went back and watched more games. Horn is the clear cut CB3 to me in this draft. Mukuamu will be a Day 2, maybe very early Day guy and just needs more coaching and experience.

I’ve been to a few SC games. Loved in Myrtle Beach and Charleston for 8 years

I haven't watched him, but have read several media scouting reports. Many say he very leggy and struggles changing directions. This is a typical trait for the majority of big corners and is why we don't see many excel at the position on the NFL level.

He's a good corner with a lot of potential. Technique needs a lot work, he can be real handsy.
