Stl Bills Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Man we Need Reggie Center, or Reggie Guard Man I wish we could have gotten Rucker though.
DevilsAlum Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Analysis Positives: Compactly built athlete with good, lean muscle definition...Stays tight with receivers on deep routes and has good play development recognition skills...Has a good feel for the ball, maintaining eye contact on the receiver while tracking the ball in flight...Keeps a tight relationship with the receiver in the open and can cover ground with his closing burst...Shows good knee bend and a smooth, easy turning motion coming out of his backpedal...Takes good angles towards the ball and makes proper body adjustments turning and flexing for the pass, demonstrating natural hands and above average timing to high point the ball...Shows fluid hip turn and quick feet coming out of his backpedal... Makes proper zone adjustments and anticipates the quarterback's moves well, as he can handle the switch-off effortlessly...Has the hip snap and body control to position himself before delivering the hit...Has the burst to recover on deep routes...Gets a sharp break on the ball and is flexible in his hip turn and compensates for a lack of ideal height with good quickness and ball anticipation skills...Stays low in his pads and extends his arms to wrap and secure as a tackle (lacks strength behind his hits, though)...Shows natural hands, extending and plucking the ball away from the body's framework...Has the field vision to keep track of the ball in flight. Negatives: Size is a big drawback, but he compensates with good aggression and the timing to go up and snatch the ball out of the receiver's hands...Lacks ideal power for run support, but even though he is willing to face up, he does not have the strong anchor to prevent ballcarriers from running through his arm tackles...Sometimes gets a little too aggressive, causing him to over-pursue, but shows the recovery quickness needed to get back into the play...Gets so pass theft conscious that he will play the ball a little too much, tending to lose sight of the receiver at times...Reaches back on his heels sometimes when turning in his backpedal...Has to show better shadow ability when handling the receiver, but flashes quickness to recover...Needs to become more physical with the receivers in press coverage. Compares To: TIM JENNINGS-Indianapolis...Corner won't ever be confused for a Charles Woodson when it comes to taking on running backs, but he does provide great value in a sub package because of his natural hands and ability to get to the ball in flight. His best asset is his ball skills, as he times his leaps well to ride up on a receiver to deflect or pick the ball off. His size is a big drawback and will probably keep him out of the starting lineup, but few cornerbacks have the ability to reach and pluck the ball like he does. Injury Report No injury report available, but Corner did not miss a game due to injuries at Akron.
PistolPeaTear Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Leodis McCorner, Reggie Corner, James Receiver, Chris D. End..... what a draft
CherryCoke Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 ARE YOU F'IN KIDDING ME?!?!?!!? Signing 2 TE's in FA that haven't done crap in the NFL does not constitute an upgrade to the position!!!!!!!!!!!!! like drafting one in the 4th round..."that hasnt done crap in the nfl"... would satisfy you? and make you feel like the upgraded the position? wow. relax...they have another pick comin up
Toledo Bill Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 If this is the "best player available" philosophy, they are taking this idea way too far. There are definately more glaring needs on this football team than cornerback (especially after our first pick). Stupid...
BRH Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 how big is this kid? 5'9", 175. Perfect for covering all those short guys. Oh wait. WE have all those short guys.
bdelma Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Bills are all set with TE fellows. There won't be any until the end maybe.
Navy Chief Navy Pride Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Get off your knees Buffalo....................Your blowing the 2nd day of the draft!!!!!!!!
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted April 27, 2008 Author Posted April 27, 2008 hmmmm....I wonder if they think that Davis or Schimit witll be there in about 15 picks. Heck, if we get just one of them still I wouldn't mind this pick.
KRT88 Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 http://www.nfl.com/draft/profiles/reggie-corner?id=4451 sounds like another good pickup for the Bills. You can never have enough good DB's and these guys come and go frequently.
Big Turk Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 OK.. the draft just turned sour for me. Why do we need another CB? Exactly what I am saying....this guy is not going to unseat Greer or James, so at BEST he will be the 5th CB on the roster, but probably 6th cause Youbouty likely is better than him too....hopefully he is good on special teams cause that is the only time he'll be seeing the field in 2008... Very disappointing considering there was a potential starting TE still sitting there for us that would have at least been as good as any on our roster from day 1....
kasper13 Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Tom Donahoe drafting today? I don't think they know what they are doing. "Hmmm......Corner is a Corner? He must be good. Take him." How do they not take a TE there?
KD in CA Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 He's from Akron, not Arkansas LSI has him coming from Arkon.
Mike formerly from Florida Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Man we Need Reggie Center, or Reggie Guard I'm going to keep quiet...
PistolPeaTear Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Sounds like the Youboty experiment is over. Yeah cuz his name isnt Ashton Corner, its too bad
San-O Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Man we Need Reggie Center, or Reggie Guard You funny!
DanInSouthBuffalo Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 I don't like this pick. Too small. I would have gone best available at DT or OL.
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted April 27, 2008 Author Posted April 27, 2008 Sounds like the Youboty experiment is over. It would be a half bad pick if they why they chose him. Youtobty has not played well. He will be our true #4 CB.
