    I feel you and respect that. It's very humbling to play DB. I remember the first time I matched up against a guy who was 6'8 and I'm 5'11....he wasn't thick, but very lean, quick, fast, and could catch. Bro when you're matched up against a guy like that inside the 20 where the field shrinks and then you realized that shit just got real and that the next play might escalate real quick lol. Richard Sherman to me, is a freakish athlete.

    +Riddick Barnes then again it's one on one....no Safety or Linebacker help. It's very hard to cover a guy who's quick, fast and tall....with no help what so ever. But then again if you the CB are very quick with your feet, hands and trust what you're looking at you'll be fine. Don't think to much, over analyze or try to over power the WR at the initial point and just read and react, you'll be fine. Being in position is key.

  • @toluolaitan916

    I don't think it's unfair at all the, DB's just need to stick to technique and really focus on the receiver to be quick enough to track his cuts. Another thing why I think these dbs get beat is because they let the receiver off to easy. They need to jam them or try to slow them down when playing up or close them IMO this is the biggest factor.

    that the whole point it's a skill drill. If you can hold your own then you have adequate enough skills to play alone on a side with one receiver (displaying the technique of man-on-man defense) which happens often if a defense suspects a db might be weak or the wide receiver is good enough to still catch it

    This drill is tough for DB's, the players I like on here by position: DBs - John Broussard, Isaiah Pryor - best dbs, Broussard is the top one. He has good form, is very competitive, and attacks the ball. WR - Tre Nixon, Ricci Nuckles - Route running, Nixon is the most polished receiver of the group. - Kyle Davis, AJ Brown - Big guys that project well. Davis is very competitive and once he learns the nuances of route running, squaring up dibs, and positioning, he'll be ridiculous.

    AJVersatility19 You're 100% right. I coached Wide Receivers at the college level for some years, and really you're trying to evaluate technique. It's assumed that you can beat a DB 1-on-1 without having to read coverage, have more than 5 seconds, and your QB having no pass rush. The reason I picked the receivers I did, is because they show the best skills to translate well. I see that Julian Hicks believes Josh Imortehbebe was the best receiver. He was the best athlete at receiver, and will get picked up based upon his size. However, when you think of receivers that make it long term, they play a lot more like Tre Nixon. Imortehbebe is what we are conditioned to like, the truth is though, his route running needs a lot of work, and against good Defenses, he might win jump balls and all of that, but, he hasn't mastered the route tree. He's limited in what he can do as a receiver. That said, there's a lot you can do with him as an athlete. I like guys that present more options. Tre Nixon is the only one that sets up his routes so nothing looks hard. I'd take him all day. Football is about timing, and trusting your receiver will be where he is supposed to be on time. Nixon will do that.

    I’m 6’ 160 lbs sophomore in HS. I got good hands, should I continue to pursue DB? I can lock up majority of the kids in my school. 40 yard (unofficial)- 5 seconds

    most of these corners were looking at the face of the receiver that's another reason why they get there ankles broken you have to look at the hips... also get your heads around dang

    damn some of these boys were good. a few footwork issues, a few holds, but overall that was some great db work. ppl who never played have no idea how shitty an example these drills are compared to real game. my coach called this blind cover. its a true test.
