There is a difference between. Horrible, Mediocre, Average, Above Average, Pro bowler, All Pro. When it comes the physical traits neither guys are elite(Allpro) They are in the range of above average to Pro bowler. That doesn't mean they can't succeed but these guys aren't athletic freaks.

Man I love this pick. Didn't think they would take him because of Scandrick and his DV accusation, but I've loved this player. Just in grades, I have him higher than Awuzie. This kid is going to be good.

lewis highlights (yes i know they are highlights) but compared to our 1st and 2nd round picks, lewis highlights and actual production is the best. Kept hearing he is the best player on the defense. Top 5 corner. 32 overall (earlier in the year). Hopefully he gets his head on straight. He could be a baller. Just like that fellas our defense gets a little better. Still would love to find a dominate return guy that can also play wr (quick, fast and can catch).

Here are the negatives.

Weaknesses
Diminutive frame. Limited in coverage options due to matchup concerns against elite NFL size. Has to work overtime to disengage from physical wideouts in run support. Tape shows small delay in reaction when attempting to mirror an inside release. Tendency to grab if beaten early off the line. Penalized 14 times over career with eight pass interferences. Will allow his man a head start past him when he starts reckless eyeballing the quarterback from off coverage. Might lack necessary spring to win 50-50 balls at the high point.

That's my big concern. The NFL will kill him in PI if he keeps it up.

Maybe but he isn't really elite in any physical trait. Hes very quick but he doesn't have elite speed.

Awuzie's SPARQ score puts him in the top 10% of all NFL players. He has elite physical traits.

Just being honest, that's the beauty of an open online forum. Hard for me to get pumped over a guy with potential domestic violence issues and who is only 5'8 and will most likely be covering Brandon Marshall and Engram who have about 60-70 lbs and 7 inches on him.

Sometimes you have to take players that are more relevant beating the teams in your division. The Giants did it by filling in Hankins spot and adding receivers due to our young secondary. Phily and Warshington are doing the same. I just think he won't be a big difference maker in the NFCE and has other baggage to go along with him.

I think Byron Jones was in a rare class of 3 Sigma athletes in the NFL, but that doesn't really translate to anything in the NFL.

Undercover NYG fans on this board took a slap to the face.

I'm willing to bet any "undercover NYG fans" you conspiracy theorists think exist would be laughing in your face. They got a DT to replace Hankins, which that line held Zeke to under 100 yards twice and we just drafted a midget/jockey compared to the "tight end" they drafted and Brandon Marshall. It's a horrible mismatch which is why I'm po'd about it. Penalty flags galore or Eli can just throw it literally 16 inches over Lewis' head and he won't have a chance at it.

I love looking at things objectively. No bias. IMO, the positives outweigh the negatives. For instance, a guy can be coached to not grab. Plus, you see grabbing in the NFL all the time, if you do it with the right technique, you hardly get called. This guy is a baller. Not the best measurables, but he shows up on film and when the lights are on.
