Draft Profile: Bio
Latrell McCutchin Sr., standing 6'1" and weighing 180 pounds, hails from Austin, Texas. At LBJ Early College High, McCutchin established himself as a dual-threat player, excelling both as a cornerback and wide receiver. His senior year stats included 40 tackles, 4 TFLs, 3 INTs, 2 fumble recoveries, and a forced fumble on defense, complemented by 20 receptions for 325 yards and 5 TDs on offense.

McCutchin's collegiate journey began at Oklahoma in 2021, where he saw action in 9 games, including one start. He recorded 9 tackles, 2 forced fumbles, and a deflection. In 2022, McCutchin followed coach Lincoln Riley to USC, contributing in all 14 games with two starts. His USC stint yielded 22 tackles, 1 TFL, 1 sack, 1 QB hurry, 1 forced fumble, and 1 fumble recovery. McCutchin transferred to Houston for the 2023 season but did not compete, instead earning recognition on the scout team.

Prior to his college career, McCutchin overcame a season-ending knee injury in his junior year of high school. His sophomore campaign at LBJ saw him named Texas District 12-5A-I Offensive Newcomer of the Year. McCutchin's freshman year was spent at Manor High School, where he recorded 27 tackles and an interception.
Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Prototype length for the boundary corner position, with a frame that can support additional muscle without sacrificing mobility.
  • Positional flexibility to potentially transition to free safety, offering valuable scheme versatility at the next level.
  • Showcases plus instincts in zone coverage, quickly diagnosing route combinations and positioning himself to make plays on the ball.
  • Natural hands and ball-tracking ability cultivated from two-way high school experience translate well to contesting catches.
  • Demonstrates willingness to set the edge against the run and blow up screens, suggesting potential as a force player.
  • Leverages length effectively at the catch point, using his wingspan to shrink passing windows and disrupt receivers.
  • Quick mental processing allows for rapid play recognition and anticipation of quarterback intentions in various coverage schemes.
  • Core special teams experience adds immediate value while developing into a potential starting role in the secondary.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Despite solid timed speed, on-field play suggests room for improvement in mirroring elite receivers and maintaining tight coverage on vertical routes.
  • Inconsistent tackling technique in space, often relying on arm tackles rather than driving through ball carriers with proper form.
  • Limited starting experience at the Power Five level raises questions about his readiness to step into an every-down role immediately.
  • Press-man coverage skills need refinement, as he's shown more comfort playing off and in zone schemes during his college career.
  • Injury history from high school could be a red flag for some teams when projecting long-term durability at the next level.
Scouting Report: Summary
McCutchin enters the draft as a high-ceiling, low-floor prospect in the defensive backfield. His prototypical length and multi-position background will intrigue NFL teams looking for scheme-flexible defenders. However, his college production hasn't quite matched the expectations set by his high school pedigree, partly due to multiple transfers.

At the next level, McCutchin profiles best in a zone-heavy scheme that allows him to read and react. His length and ball skills make him an asset in disrupting passing lanes, but he'll need to improve his press technique and long speed to become a complete corner. Special teams could be his ticket to early playing time while he develops his coverage skills.

While McCutchin's physical tools and versatility keep him on the draft radar, his journey from top recruit to rotational player has likely impacted his stock. A strong showing in his final college season could significantly boost his draft position, but as it stands, he profiles as a day three pick with developmental upside.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
