MDH 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 676468[/snapback] Just out of curiousity how can you use the guru rankings to defend a pick now and say they don't know what they're talking about with the first few picks?
PromoTheRobot Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Now we have King Tut and Sheik Youbouty! PTR
Acantha Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Good player, but I'm bummed that we didn't get Jean-Gilles
BoondckCL Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 No offensive players picked yet. The guy that i really wanted with this pick that was taken before we picked was Tapp. Guy took it to the house against D'Brick in the senior bowl. Since he was gone, i wanted either Pope or Jean-Giles, but since we didn't get them, Marv better pray that the defense dominates within the next two years.

If you want to hate him, be my guest. PTR
Astrobot Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 I had Youboty above Gordon and Minter at CB, and best in RD#3. I thought we'd wait on a CB until Day 2. Surprised that this isn't an OT, though. Jon Scott still on the board at OT, and Max Jean-Gilles at OG.
damj Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Finally a good pick, but "Where's the Beef (on the 0-line)?
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 This defensive backfield is getting faster and younger.Nice pick! 676473[/snapback] Edited. Wonder if they're fast enough to hold coverage for 15 seconds?
Lurker Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Wow, we sure like Ohio State DBs......is this guy good? Anyone? 676440[/snapback] Good VALUE pick. Yeah, I think this is a guy who could be very good in a year or two.
udonkey Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 YESSS!!! I called it earlier (with the 2nd 1st rounder) - the Buckeye Backfield....now lets just RE-SIGN NATE!
ajzepp Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Good VALUE pick. Yeah, I think this is a guy who could be very good in a year or two. 676515[/snapback] I dig it. I think it may spell the end of the road for Mr. Clements, though
Ramius Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 This pick should shut up all the people bitchin about jabari greer...

Lurker Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Scouts Inc. Analysis Strengths: Possesses ideal height, adequate bulk and the frame to get bigger. Is a smooth and fluid athlete for his size. Possesses good top-end speed. He has long arms and good leaping ability to challenge for the ball in the air. He is intelligent and should be able to learn from his mistakes. He plays aggressively in run support. Fills hard, takes decent angles and has developed into a solid open field tackler. Shows playmaking instincts when the ball is in the air and he has outstanding ball skills. He has experience returning punts and shows NFL upside in that capacity. Weaknesses: Recognition skills are below average. Remains too inconsistent in coverage. Gambles too often and will give up too many big plays consequently. He gives away his tendencies and got burnt for it on several occasions as a junior in 2005 (see Minnesota and Texas games). Lacks ideal bulk and strength. Will have some more trouble taking on bigger blockers and taking down bigger runners in the NFL. Overall: Youboty enrolled during the winter quarter in 2002. He played as a reserve defensive back in all 13 games of his true freshman season in 2003. Youboty started nine of the 12 games that he played as a sophomore in 2004 and finished with 61 tackles, four interceptions and 14 passes broken up. Youboty started all 12 games as a junior in 2005 and finished with 56 tackles, six TFL, one sack, one interception and nine PBU. Youboty is an early entry prospect with loads of upside but also lots of room to improve. He possesses an outstanding combination of size, athletic ability and speed, and he also flashes playmaking skills as a man-to-man cover corner. However, he inconsistent in terms of his technique and recognition skills in coverage, which leads to entirely too many big plays allowed on his watch. In short, Youboty is by no means a finished product but he has the potential to develop into a shutdown cover corner in the NFL, which is why he could come off the 2006 draft board late in the first round.

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Out of curiosity, who started in the Patriots backfield last year? Why did they have so much success?
