Dishon McNary DB Central Michigan Draft Profile

Strengths

• Good instincts and anticipation reads and reacts with discipline. Dangerous with the ball in his hands.
• Aware zone cornerback who is also adept in man coverage, flashing physical hand punch at the line and straight-line speed to stay with receivers downfield.
• Closes to the ball quite well and possesses the hands to snatch throws away from his frame.
• Stout and feisty. Will engage, shed and securely wrap the ballcarrier. Very fluid hips, backpedal and change-of-direction agility.
• Extremely aggressive to come up and put his body in traffic to make tackles.

Weaknesses

• Needs work on backpedaling to prevent defenders from getting behind him.
• Will slip off tackles and needs to finish more consistently.
• Not an explosive player and needs to show better bend and flexibility in his drops - plays too high.
• Needs to tighten his angles in pursuit. Needs to show better tackling technique to consistently finish.
• Inconsistent getting off of blocks. Can be a step slow to react when a quarterback comes back to his side of the field late in progression.
