Zeek 16,525 Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Rivals article behind a paywall titled "Elite DB Andrew Booth is 'very close' to a decision" nice to know it's sounding like it's coming sooner than later. This would be a massive get next to OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confusing to say the least...If we could get him to commit to us before BCW and ten have him there to recruit bthat would be great but I don't think he'll commit before BCW. However it goes I really hope he commits to the good guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rednilla 5,359 Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 @bigbird DB is your area of expertise...care to give us a scouting report based on what you see in his video? I only saw a couple of plays that he appeared to be athletically superior to the opposition, primarily the one when he jumped in and made a deflection on a well thrown ball without interfering with the receiver. I know the scouts have to have reason to rank him so highly, but I just didn't see it much in his highlights. Am I blind, or is the tape on DBs often underwhelming?

I'm not Bird but as far as his highlight video... His height, length, size, and strength are "elite". His closing speed, recovery speed, and his on field awareness are superior to many elite players. For those reason he's rated so highly. Also you have to realize he's competing against top level teams as well. Bird can comment on his technique more so then I can so I'll leave that up to him.

Speed, length, and fluidity. He opens his hips smoothly and drives on the ball really well. The best thing I can say is he has very good body control and is fluid in his movements. He also tackles through the ball carrier. One thing I did notice is that with his long arms, he separates and holds off the wr blocks and sheds violently on the screens.

He’s not a blazing speed guy but he plays very fast. Like I said give me Booth and Stevenson at corner and I’ll be a happy camper plus the safeties we have and potentially will sign. Watch out our defense will go to a totally different level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WFE12 9,190 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Carlton proving his worth. Coaches are excited about him. They see him as being their shutdown corner. If he can keep it up and have a successful, long career that would be great. Major selling point for guys like Booth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
