🏈 Ranking the Draft's Top 100 Players - (Legwold)

Crazy to think how far Cyrus has come at UA.

Somehow avoided the Redshirt as a freshman receiver... Mostly cause he was the Punt returner.

Then got moved to CB as a soph, got his ass smoked all season.

Junior year got better and was terrific his senior season.

Had he started at CB as a true frosh, IMO those seasons would've been expedited and he probably would've been better his Soph/Junior seasons. He was asked to do a lot considering the circumstances.

Obviously he is limited with his size, but is really strong for a little guy and plays with an edge. The main thing he has going for him is that he just makes plays... Somehow, someway, finds a way to make big plays. Could be a good returner option at next level as well.

Who knows, could end up having a Courtland Finnegan type career... Little dude that plays bigger and finds a way to interrupt the game.
 
And BTW - I think Reed is a better player than A'Shawn, and will have the better NFL career. IMO Reed is more consistent and slightly better instincts. Will have to check back on that in a few years though, since A'Shawn probably has a higher "upside".
