A CB that the expert says “needs to learn how to cover.” Really excited about this pick now!

“Expert” The dude is a first round talent. He just needs coaching.

He wouldn't be available in the 3rd if there was nothing wrong with him. Just like everyone else drafted in the 3rd round.

Good pick imo

The Athletic GRADE: 2nd-3rd Round (No. 76 overall)

SUMMARY: A two-year starter at Stanford, Adebo was the left cornerback in defensive coordinator Lance Anderson’s scheme, lining up primarily outside in both man and zone. He put himself on the NFL radar with an All-American redshirt freshman season, but his sophomore year fell short of expectations and he chose not to play in 2020, creating a challenging evaluation for NFL teams. Adebo stays attached to routes once he is connected, displaying the length and ball-tracking ability to consistently disrupt the catch point (34 passes defended, eight interceptions in 22 games). While he competes with confidence and toughness, negative plays usually result from inconsistent discipline and body fundamentals. Overall, Adebo is a leggy, upright athlete prone to false steps, but his size, foot agility and instinctive ball skills are traits worth gambling on. He projects best as a press-man corner who can also play in a Cover 3 scheme.
