CB on the rise Day 2: Antwaun Molden

hagan714 · 03-10-2008, 08:52 AM

Antwaun Molden, Eastern Kentucky, 6007, 195, 4.40 (CB/S tweener)

Molden was the strongest cornerback at the Combine, with 23 repetitions of 225 pounds on the bench press. He also performed well in the agility tests at the Combine, and he ran track in college as well as playing football. At 6-foot-1 and 195 pounds, NFL teams like his size, and he had a very good senior season against I-AA competition.

The adjustment from I-AA to the NFL is a big one, but some teams think he'll make the adjustment. Keep an eye out for Molden on Day 2 of the draft. He is more an athlete than football player at this stage.He needs to be coached up. An intriguing small school sleeper with ideal triangle numbers.

If he decides to concentrate on football, Molden should become a constant on some NFL team's special team squad. Eventually, he could challenge for playing time at CB or S.

I'm personally tired of projects that need to be coached up. It always seems for us it takes an entire contract to coach them up and it never pans out. I know there are exceptions but we need people with potential to start right away. I say no way.

Agreed ... plus did we not have a Molden earlier in our Saints history that was basically a carbon copy?

I say NO TOO!
