Our DB’s in the past all got way better their 2nd-3rd year in the program. All of these guys should be better.
Yeah, between Kyler, Asa, Cam, and McDuffie, we had 4 freshmen getting a lot of time at db positions last year. I think our db play is going to take a huge jump next year. Our defense, as a whole, could easily be one of the best in the country with who we have returning.
Mcduffie looked legit as a true freshman, the times he looked bad was when he was abused for his size. He isn’t ever going to be a hard hitter or physical CB but he looked like a future lockdown cover guy.
Molden played really well last year, hope he gets to play that extra striker/nickel role and doesn’t have to split time between helping the shitty safeties and shitty LBers like Bryant did too much last year.
McDuffie can hit. Taylor is by far our softest CB.
Interesting they are rated this high with our linebackers and one of the safeties always being subpar to worthless for the entire year. For two guys in our secondary To be rated that high speaks to how bad those other positions were as they were nothing more than above avg on defense as a whole.

The LBs were historically bad. A 5'10" slot corner led the team in tackles.
The LBs had quite a few years of high school and some college under their belt and did everything possible to loose the games. Nuff said on that.
Didn't Cam lead the team in INTs? He had his rough times but he also showed a nose for the ball. He'll be a good player for us
I'd have William's out there in packages. He does seem to see plays from the zone and put himself in position to get to the ball. I think he needs extra protection against good running games and to be kept out of man to man situations in space.
He's a step slow for a college safety and doesnt seem to be a good open field tackler. Sure he can get better, but slower guys are always going to be slower guys. The fast guys work on their speed too.
Happened upon this projection from Mel Kiper for the way too early draft stuff, figured I’d post it. Molten getting solid praise and projection. NFL evolving will work out well for Molden.
Hey Mel, not a pick six. Rather the int in the red zone that led to Ahmed’s 89 yarder against USC. I was there!

I think Molden might be in the top 13 players in college football this year but he won't be in the top 13 in the NFL draft.
Your athleticism has to be in a special tier of elite for you to go top 15 as a 5'10" corner. Molden is really fucking good, and plenty athletic, but I don't think he's in that tier.

I agree. Even Budda went 36th.
Budda would've gone in the first if he wasn't a QAnon believer and anti vaxxer

Also, Cade was listed as Kiper’s 5th best TE.
