Watched a few of his DraftBreakdown videos. Great cover corner, but he'd worry me in this scheme. Rod is bend don't break, so you have to be able to tackle. This guy is a matador if a ball carrier comes his way.

Go to 2:35 and 3:22. Soft. Both plays resulted in huge TD's. Doesn't happen if Awuzie's on that side.

Pretty sure you don't need to worry about getting Kevin King 1.0, barring a trade up.

Cordrea Tankerskey or Fabian Moreau. Google them, study them etc. because if either is on the board at 60 it's our pick. Dallas loves these guys

I like Moreau even though he is a little soft. He can cover.

What's it going to be then, eh?

If you want a good tackler, probably best to hope Awuzie falls, which I highly doubt.

Agreed. Those are probably our likely targets. If I had to pick between them, I would take Moreau. Tankersley's grabbiness is worrisome. He is also not exactly the most intense tackler either.

WOW lol 2:35 was embarrassing. I see what people meant. I still don't see why Fabian is soft though. I'd like evidence such as this video on him

Give me smart guys who will be in position and want to tackle over the "elite cover man"

I agree that he is not good against the run; however, I think at 3:22 he did what he should have done at 2:35 which was make certain that the run didn't go outside. At 2:35 by the time he was near the blocker his angle had already screwed up the play. He should have stayed farther outside long before he got near the blocker.

On those 2 plays I could see that fixed with coaching. Now on some other plays I've seen from him, he definitely just had poor effort against the run.

His coverage ability is really good. He is very loose, agile, quick with good deep speed and great height and arm length.

His ball skills are not great. I've seen him drop balls that should have been easy INTs.

I would be fine with drafting him in the 4th round.

4th would be great, but I wouldn't hate him at 92. Maybe Rod can inject a backbone into this cat.

I think there is a chance that Dallas might move up in the second to secure a CB they like a lot (although I still view it as a long shot).

Awuzie would be one of the few that would make me okay with that move. (Budda Baker would be another) Damn, I like that guys game.

Without a move up, don't forget about Desmond King either.

He reminds me of Mike Jenkins. While Jenkins was not that tall, he did have really long arms. His issue was a lack of effort in run support. Unfortunately, Jenkins was here during the Wade Phillips era and didn't have anyone to ride his butt about being better against the run. Jenkins is still in the NFL.
