Weaknesses

For players like a Jeff Okudah, it’s tough to pinpoint their weaknesses, that’s why they’re considered generational talents.

While nothing sticks out like a sore thumb, the question surrounding him is can he transfer the play from last season into the NFL? Can Okudah live up to the hype and make an immediate impact on whatever defense he lands on?

Defensive backs have been one of the more “boom or bust” positions in the draft over recent years. So well it’s not much of a weakness, the question for Okudah is can he give Ohio State the crown as DBU or will he not be able to make the jump from college to pro football? My answer is he’ll be a top-five corner after next season.

Like I said, it’s hard to find a weakness for a player like Okudah, so then the expectations get higher and the questions of boom or bust is raised.
