DRAFT PROJECTION: Rounds 4-5
BOTTOM LINE
A receiver-turned-cornerback in a safety’s body, Jean-Baptiste looks the part and has intriguing ball skills, strength and upside, though he lacks elite athletic ability, is smoother than he is sudden and does not consistently play to his size. Workout numbers will dictate his ultimate role and draft value, but on tape shows skills to warrant developmental consideration from teams employing press or Cover 2.
DRAFT PROJECTION
Priority free agent
BOTTOM LINE
Big, tough, athletic, West Coast receiver who broke out as a senior. Has a mixture of "Z" and "X" traits and could even be viewed as a developmental H-back prospect.
DRAFT PROJECTION
Rounds 4-5
BOTTOM LINE
Big, tough, physical, ornery blocker with starter-quality positional traits and intangible qualities. Is best in a phone booth, where he excels as a run and pass blocker, and is smart and savvy enough to contribute outside in emergency situations.
DRAFT PROJECTION
Priority free agent
BOTTOM LINE
Big, scrappy, experienced, long-armed lineman who was miscast at left tackle in college. Lacks core strength to shift inside and could struggle to be more than just a guy.
Yes, Darqueze is Alfonzo's cousin.Pretty awesome. Also Alfonzo's (is it cousin?) is way up at the top. Seems like a premiere talent. Roby looked like he struggled a lot last year, which should be a red flag, despite the obvious physical talent he has and displayed well the year before.
45. Detroit Lions | Stanley Jean-Baptiste, CB, NebraskaThe Lions get the top safety in the draft in Round 1 and then get the needed addition at corner in Round 2. Jean-Baptiste has safety size.
