he falling to PhillySomeone is gonna get a fukkin steal here.
IFO EKPRE-OLOMU
CB
OREGON
GRADE
5.6
5'10" - 195LBS.
STRENGTHS Very fluid mover. He can transition like his hips are on a swivel and he has the foot quickness in tight spaces to match. Instinctive and alert. Will transition from man or zone coverage and become a willing tackler against crossing routes that enter his side of the field. Not a robotic defender -- adjusts on the fly as plays unfold. Uses the boundary effectively. Doesn't shy away from tackling. Competitive and won't prematurely open up out of fear. Tracks the ball effectively and has plus ball skills. Mentally tough and twitchy. Playmaking tendencies. Aggressive for size in press coverage. Has experience outside and in the slot. Projected as an NFL gunner on special teams.
WEAKNESSES Suffered a severe knee injury after the regular season in preparation for the College Football Playoff semifinal vs. Florida State. Unorthodox defender who rarely relies on technique. Gets in trouble trying to bait throws. Spends too much time trying to read quarterback and jump routes. Scouting community down on short cornerbacks. Prefers to play trail technique but lacks length speed to recover when challenged over the top against bigger targets. Missed more tackles in 2014 than in any other season. Can get wild and lose technique as a tackler. Tape from 2014 has scouts questioning his long speed.
SOURCES TELL US "He's tough and has ball skills. He's just being asked to go play right now but he'll get the right technique work in our league and watch how good he becomes then. He's going to be great." -- AFC South area scout
NFL COMPARISON Alterraun Verner
BOTTOM LINE Ekpre-Olomu's height and knee issue are likely to take him off the board as a first-round prospect for many defenses. However, what he lacks in measurables, he makes up for with production, natural ability and confidence. He might lack the size teams want from an outside cornerback, but he's more than capable of playing in the slot and playing press, off or zone effectively. Unfortunately for Ekpre-Olomu, the knee injury could hurt his draft stock.

I'm thinking seattle at 63 or maybe even 31 if he beasts at the combine. He is going to be great.. @Brady-Carter your opinion?
If Ifo falls to the 1st pick of the 2nd round, Bucs are grabbin' him with the quickness.
Hell if we could get Jameis, Ifo, and Greene or Green-Beckham with our 1st 3 picks, i'd say we were successful as fukk.

I'm tired of us taking chances on players in the draft that are currently hurt. We did it with the cat from Florida last yr and the corner Dowling never really even made it to the field. I just want a healthy stud pick.

Good point.
Ya, I would say so. But is Oline not a major need for you guys?
We need OLine bad, but I just can't say no to addin' more weapons if they're available
If we were to go OLine in the 2nd or 3rd, I wouldn't be mad

With the right safeties dude will beast. Last year I thought that the secondary was much better overall and his chemistry with the safeties allowed him to take chances that he couldn't this year.

I agree but id make an exception for Todd Gurley
Marcus and Jameis will both throw at the combine.
