New Cowboys CB Noah Igbinoghene: “I know it’s a very popular organization. Most popular football team in America. I’m blessed to be here. This is an amazing opportunity. I’m hoping to thrive here. … I feel like I honestly needed (a fresh start). My career hasn’t really gone up to my expectations. I’m still young. I’m 23 years old. I get a new fresh start. … The stuff I went through in Miami, it built me. It built my character. I needed to go through that. All that stuff built me for this moment right here.”

based on what I have read (and I don't claim to know all of the details). both have physical ability, but the struggle on the mental part. their skills and ability hasn't translated to NFL. perhaps a fresh start for both. I don't see a high ceiling for him if he hasn't improved his game in the few years he was at Miami.

I hope this kid pans out, but I am happy to not have KJ on the team regardless.

I thought that was only done for Epstein Island……

And if it doesn’t work out, we got more trade value for him being a former first round pick than the guy we traded for him

If their future success is tied to the "mental part", and based on both of their initial interviews with their new teams, I overwhelming like Iggy's chances over Fat's.

 

[Stash]

Igbinoghene seems to have a great attitude and that’s big for me.

CB Noah Igbinoghene​

Overview
Stocky but explosive receiver-turned-cornerback whose play generates both intrigue and concern. He's extremely physical from snap to whistle with the strength to alter route timing from press. He's a good athlete with a plus burst to close. He's naturally aggressive to ambush catch tries. Staying in phase on the vertical plane is a challenge and pattern recognition is surprisingly average. Improvement is likely with more experience and technique, but playing with downfield poise is not guaranteed. He's good in run support and offers early special teams help as he continues to learn his craft.
Strengths

• Very strong and very physical
• Explosive athleticism
• Tremendously competitive with outstanding practice habits
• Treats press jam like a sparring session
• Repetitive strikes to inside shoulder help grind on the release
• Instant acceleration to open and chase
• Low center of gravity for quicker change of direction
• Shows ability for early recovery in short spaces
• Aggressive challenges diminish receivers' focus at catch point
• Heavy chops through receivers' arms and hands force incompletions
• Good balance and radar as open-field tackler
• Two career kick return touchdowns and gunner talent

Weaknesses

• Very raw with just two years playing the position
• Lacks natural footwork and fluidity in space
• Inconsistent mirroring release and timing up his opening
• Slow to sort what he sees from off coverage
• Eye balance between receiver and quarterback is lacking
• Plays with all power and no finesse
• Below average at staying in phase with the route
• Panic sets in with his back to the ball
• Yellow flags find him when he doesn't find the ball
• Tackles up high and needs to lower his target aim

Maybe you want to credit Lance Zeurlein for this scouting report?

Most popular and most hated.

Which makes them the most wealthy.

Bingo

Bossman's street cred is blown by him getting cut before this guy.

Not sure Wright would have been kept if he had not been injured so we could stash him on IR. Would have needed the long snapper and I'm not sure we would have cut anyone else on the 53 over Wright.

He was in the wrong system. Quinn will get this kid balling.

Let’s hope so.You can never have too many quality corners.

 

[Toro9]

Probably just as valuable, if not more than Joseph. Slight upgrade.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Coaches must have really soured on Joseph because Igbinoghene is not a better corner. I’m guessing they didn’t trust his mental preparedness or grasp of the scheme. I think Joseph is the lesser of two evils. He was a standout as gunner.

Igbinoghene returned 2 Kicks for TDs in college. Maybe that was of interest to the Cowboys.

Bones probably wants to start running kicks back even if they're fielded 9 yards deep in the endzone...
