Those are the issues I have seen cited


I'm not saying he doesn't have exceptional ball skills. I just think it's an exaggeration intended for effect to say he has the best ball skills of any DB we've had since Casanova. It's not a knock on Greedy, but he has a lot of company at his position, as we have produced some of the best DBs in college football over the past 20 years. IMO, Patrick Peterson is in a class of his own. I think he is arguably the most gifted athlete, in any sport, in LSU history, and his ball skills were incredible.

Lots of pass rushers in this draft will push several 1st round players into the 2nd...

Every good CB doesn't like to tackle. That's why they make sure their guy doesn't catch the ball.

He will be in the 1st. CBs with his length, runs a 4.37 at the combine, and his ability to lock dudes down, always go in the 1st

As the process goes on, more and more people are seeing he’s a diva rather than just a hungry DB. I’d imagine his stock falls plenty by draft day. This shouldn’t be much of a shock though, you could see the signs in the field with the excessive taunting over routine defensive stops.

Yeah, NFL teams are really averse to having DBs with a lot of attitude.

He was bad in the on field workouts at the combine, granted scouts did say he impressed at his pro day

IIRC correctly, most mocks have him as the 2nd corner off the board, either behind Baker from UGA or the kid from UW (can’t remember his name). And the first corner is almost always coming off the board late teens to early 20s.

*If* Greedy goes in the second round like these mocks are predicting, it probably has as much to do with team needs as it does with his individual rating. Everyone pretty much agrees he’s a day one starter.

In my opinion, I honestly believe His not playing in the bowl game was a negative, plus his arrogant attitude that he shows in interviews (and maybe this came across in interviews at the combine???) doesn't help him... for a complete contrast, look how Devin White has handled the process with a great deal of humility

Something is up because I've noticed he's been dropping steadily the last couple of weeks. The NFL is a weird animal and things can change on a dime. Would love to know what's going on because players don't drop for no reason at all!

Attitude isn’t always a good thing. Just hope for him that he’s good enough for it not to matter.

Yeah let's watch the niners turn another great LSU DB into a SJW douche.

Truth be told, Mike Williams was the best db on that team.
