| Coty Sensabaugh Scouting Report |
| Coty Sensabaugh - Clemson (HT: 5-11¼ - WT: 189) |
Positives -- Outstanding athletic ability; really helped himself at the combine and might now receive mid-round consideration, his 4.42-40 and 6.60 sec. in the three-cone drill were both top five among cornerbacks... Was often called up to cover the opponent's fastest wide receiver and never backed away from
that challenge... Can play zone if needed, but is better suited as a man cover corner than zone player due to his skill set... Excels in deep coverage, can stay in the hip pocket of receivers; has a good feel for routes and is usually in good position to make the play... Despite getting beat at times, has outstanding recovery speed which really helps him in man coverage... Very fluid when turning his hips to run with receivers; accelerates quickly and covers a lot of ground on the field... Very smart player with good pre-snap recognition skills... Had a standout senior season, was very consistent for the Tigers, which put him on the map... NFL bloodlines, his cousin Gerald is a safety for the Dallas Cowboys.
Negatives -- Has very little starting experience, only had three starts prior to his senior season... Has a bit of a pop coming out of his backpedal and will play too high on the snap... Allows too many free releases off the line of scrimmage, needs to improve using his hands and getting them on the receiver at the line; bigger receivers tend to give him problems as he's not physical enough off the snap... Needs to improve his overall strength at the next level... Ball skills and awareness could both improve; Sensabaugh has a bad habit of not turning his head when the ball is in the air and could be prone to illegal contact or pass interference penalties in the NFL.
