Hey Saintpaul25 ..we got the Priest...lol

A thinly built corner who needs to add a bit more bulk to his frame, Priest is a gifted athlete with natural bend in his lower half and impressive balance and overall footwork in his drop. He does a great job sitting into his back-pedal, keeping his feet under him and exploding toward the ball. He's effective in both press/man and off-coverage and looks effortless when asked to open up his hips and run downfield. He's patient in his drop, doesn't bail out of his back-pedal prematurely and showcases the instincts and footwork to instantly click and close on plays underneath him. He isn't physical, but is feisty off the line and isn't afraid to press. He does a nice job getting his hands in on receivers, but has a tendency to get straight-legged and high when trying to generate a push and will stop moving his feet. Overall, he isn't technically sound

If we get enough good players in the backfield we can load the box & the other team has problems (in theory)
