CB2 - Darrelle Revis, Pittsburgh Darrelle Revis

NFL.com Profile

Height: 5-11
Weight: 204
40 yard dash: 4.39
Grade: 92
Strengths:
Revis has prototypical size for the position and a solid build with long arms. He uses his long arms to play physical with receivers. He has good change of direction skills and excels at reading the quarterback. He is not afraid to press the receiver and is faster than some give him credit for. He is willing to support the run and is a solid open field tackler. He returned punts well at Pittsburgh and could be an NFL caliber returner.

Weaknesses:

Revis has good timed speed but may not have the necessary acceleration to react to receivers who beat his jam. He has a tendency to over use his hands, which could result in penalties at the NFL level. He is going to be susceptible to fast receivers who are able to get off the line of scrimmage. He has a tendency to stay to upright in his backpedal which causes him to struggle against elusive receivers.

Overall:

Revis has solid technique and a frame that allows him to play press coverage, but he may be best served in a zone heavy scheme, especially versus top receivers, due to only average agility. Like Leon Hall, he may not be able to develop into a true #1 shutdown corner but he should be able to have a solid career, especially when his kick return skills are considered.
