Solid. Alot of mocks have him going in the third. Look for him to go in the second. I really like him. Hitter. Thats the word I would describe him with. I would love to see him at S for the saints.

Charles Godfrey, Iowa, 5116, 208, 4.44 (CB/S tweener)

Godfrey, a senior from Iowa, is one of the bigger cornerback prospects in the country. He is a well-seasoned corner who possesses all the skills necessary to succeed at the next level. Godfrey has the excellent size with a solid frame and long arms to jam receivers at the line, even at the next level. Physical from beginning to end. Jams receivers and knocks off their routes. Godfrey is not only big and strong, but he's as fast in pads as most in the country. A fantastic athlete with a real quick burst to close. His sound open field tackling was developed during his time playing special teams as a freshman and starting at free safety as a sophomore. Godfrey shows great ball skills while in coverage and is great in run support. Physical and aggressive, Godfrey has notched 193 tackles in his four years with the Hawkeyes. He will deliver the big hit.
Has been known to be too aggressive and be completely out of the position. Can't keep up down field with elite speed receivers. Extremely raw and still learning the position. Has to work on his technique when it comes to footwork and positioning. Marginal instincts, awareness resulting in him giving up too many big plays. He relies too heavily on his natural talent
His experience at multiple positions, along with his strength and speed, should help him find himself amongst the top tier of cornerbacks in this draft. Still improving and has a huge upside.
Charles Godfrey will turn out to be a diamond in the rough for some NFL franchise. May just be scratching the surface of potential. Excels in cover skills, very good in run support.
