ajzepp Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Wow, we sure like Ohio State DBs......is this guy good? Anyone?
Ramius Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Hell of a pick in round 3. Thought he'd go in the 1st. this probably means (With mcgee, king, and now youboty) that NC is gone after this year.
JimBob2232 Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 First round talent in the 3rd round. Cant go wrong...Dont really need a CB though.
Rico Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Steal in the 3rd, a month ago most thought he'd go before Whitner.
Ralonzo Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 First pick that's been remotely good value. Too bad he can't block Jason Taylor. Is there any way to strike a deal with the NCAA where we annually forfeit our first 4 rounds, and just take the entire Ohio State defensive backfield?
The Jokeman Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Ashton Youboty/CB/Ohio State Height: 5'11" Weight: 189 40 Time: 4.43 Vertical Jump: 36" DOB: 7/7/1984 Interested Teams: Chicago Bears, Washington Redskins Projected Round: 2nd Strengths: Youboty is a tall, lean cornerback with excellent speed and overall athletic ability. He has the speed to stay with faster receivers and recover quickly. Displays solid footwork and changes directions quickly. Is a strong, technically sound tackler for a cornerback. Can deliver hard hits and wraps up quickly, allowing him to miss few tackles. Is quick in pursuit and shows good burst and closing speed, which could potentially make him valuable in run support, provided that he develops better strength. Has the raw talent to become a shut-down corner along with his height and athleticism. Weaknesses: Youboty is a very inconsistent defender whose biggest weakness is giving up big plays. Despite having good speed, he has a tendency to get beat deep because at times he is a bit slow to react on plays or too aggressive. Does not have a great amount of experience and will take some time to develop. Needs to become a more consistent player. Shows signs of stardom at times but then is prone to making mistakes at other times. Has the height but needs to add some bulk. Lacks the strength to be a physical corner and will struggle against some of the bigger, stronger receivers in the NFL. Has very little experience playing man coverage. Overall: Youboty has some potential and is certainly a talented cornerback, but he may have made a mistake by leaving Ohio State early. He still needs some time to develop better consistency and stop giving up deep passes. He has good height for the NFL, but he needs to develop some strength so he can get ready for more physical play at the next level. Has proven his athletic ability with great speed and quickness, but he is appears to be a work-in-progress who will take some time to fully develop into a consistent shut-down corner. Reminds you of: Chris Gamble, Carolina Panthers Courtesy of NFl Draft Almanac.com who ranks him as the 7th best CB.
FeelThePede Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Great pick. He was predicted to go into the first round.
PromoTheRobot Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 http://nfldraft.rivals.com/cviewplayer.asp...=scoutingreport #2 CB in the draft. #33 player overall. A loser. PTR
Frez Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 This defense is getting faster and younger. Nice pick!
ans4e64 Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Great pick. He was predicted to go into the first round. 676467[/snapback]
Zac Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 I really love this pick. He DOES gamble but he is very physical, and great against the run.
FeelThePede Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 676476[/snapback] What's wrong? Don't like having Nate Clement's replacement on the team?
ajzepp Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Steal in the 3rd, a month ago most thought he'd go before Whitner. 676458[/snapback] Um....is that GOOD? lol
