Any chance the Cowboys take Forbes at 26. The more I watch him the more I love him.
6 picks returned for touchdowns. This guy is a skinny Sauce Gardener with better ball skills.
Forbes actually reminds me of Witherspoon, who is my favorite player in this whole draft. Both Forbes and Spoon play the CB position very naturally. Their instincts are great and both of them just harass the hell out of receivers.
Sauce is a pretty good comparison because both are such natural corners.
Forbes really plays the ball well and is a pure ball hawk. It is all about the ball at CB/WR and he is always finding it and keeping it away from the receiver one way or another. He is just a really good football player.
So many corners are just athletes playing the position and they’re learning what to do. Some may turn into good players and some may not… but Forbes and Spoon are really good players, right now. They both have great eyes, anticipation and athleticism, and they compete like hell for the ball. They both will stick their nose into contact and are just really a pain in the *** for offenses.
Forbes watching Gilmore for a year while he gets his feet wet and just putting on weight is something that I really want to see. Forbes has everything you want in a corner… he just needs to get a little stronger.
