Asante Samuel | |||
New England Patriots | CB | 120 | Central Florida |
| Strength: Asante Samuel is an athletic and intelligent cornerback. Asante Samuel gets his hands on the ball a lot in pass coverage. | |||
| Weakness: Asante Samuel doesn't have ideal cornerback speed. Asante Samuel does not tackle bigger players very well. | |||
| Development: Asante Samuel shows the skills of a solid man-to-man cornerback, but may not have the speed for the position in the NFL. If Asante Samuel cannot find a way to compensate for his speed deficiency on defense, he is more than adequate as a special teams player and looks good with the ball in his hands. Asante Samuel will at best be a nickel corner on the defense this year. In a scheme such as cover 2, it is possible Asante Samuel can be a pretty good cornerback down the road. | |||
| Fantasy Football Rating: Solid return man and as a corner he made a lot of plays on the ball in college. | |||
| Prospect Type: Productive. Ready-to-go. | |||
