Post draft breakdown

i.e. Where he's out of position on that TD run, he should be coached up to read the OL at the snap, and check his movement so he doesn't get out of position. It looks like C1 Robber, so he has no need to drift across with the motion as the SS is dropping into the hole and will pick up the motion man if he turns upfield. He therefore has deep midfield coverage and run fit responsibility to his side. But he keeps moving even though there's no likely deep middle threat at the snap and that puts him out of position. With both guards firing out his first read there should be run, so plant and come downfield to the LOS and find the RB. Once he's out of position its too late.



Now if he sat down with the WFT coaches and they asked him what he did wrong there, if he said something along those lines, I'd say he's eminently coachable and his raw talent means he has real potential. If he can't see and correct those behaviours then he won't last long. Right now he still looks better than Apke!

I'm with you that at least part of it is on coaching... But consistent tackling is part technique part instinct IMO. I want DBs that love wrapping people's ankles crocodile roll style.

Out of position is another deal, way more coachable IMO.
