If I just looked that the two highlight videos I would think that Jourdan is the better CB. Thoughts?

Lewis has physical limitations but is a good player.

Awuzie is a SPARQ champion while also someone who was incredibly productive in college. Still can't believe Awuzie dropped to 60.

Lewis being limited somewhwat athletically and from a size perspective means he is best suited for the slot. Awuzie can play anywhere.

Lewis is more of a corner. Awuzie is more of a slot guy or safety.

Their size would seem to indicate that Lewis is more of the slot guy but when you factor in arm length it becomes a wash between both of them. Combine that with the ball skills Lewis displays and how competitive he is at the point of the catch then I think he's the one I would want on the outside.

Plus Awuzie brings intelligence, physicality and blitzing ability of a safety that should be more of a factor in the slot so I think if he shows in camp he can cover nearly as well as Scandrick then he'll be the slot guy.

I don't know which plays better outside, but Lewis gives us the best match-up against the smaller, shiftier WRs like OBJ, Sheppard, Crowder, etc. Lewis should be matched-up with those guys all game long, no matter where they line up.

Awusie seems to play with great scheme awareness while Lewis glues himself to the receiver and rides his hip. Playing zone, I would give Awusie the edge, while Lewis would get the edge in tight man coverage. I would give Awusie the edge for scheme versatility.
