Okay my Big Blue buddies. Happy? I am jumping out of my pants (close your eyes). You know how much I touted this kid. Now, he's right where he belongs, in a Blue uniform.

Wonderful report.
The two things that jump out at me are his abilities to ...
(1) Set up the CB with a move, then wait till the defender bites, then execute his separation move. How many times do you see a receiver try a move (which the defender recognizes, and adjust to) - the result is the QB doesn't both throwing the ball. The play has failed.
(2) The ability to compensate for a poorly thrown ball. Many times that's a life-saver for errant balls that would otherwise be intercepted.
