Pos: Physical cornerback with good upside potential. Jams opponents at the line, fluid turning his sips and easily runs downfield with receivers. Quickly breaks to the throw, has a burst of closing speed as well as a hard-hitting style. Active in run defense, attacks opponents and shakes the ball loose with jarring hits.
Neg: Mentally hesitant, slow locating the ball and gives up receptions when he should not. Struggles making plays with his back to the ball.
Analysis: A terrific athlete with good upside, Griffin could start at the next level in the proper system. Best in a zone system or press coverage.

I think Lawson is the perfect fit for us and I really like Cedric Griffin. I walked away from the Senior Bowl wondering why he wasn't getting more props. So did you sit down and watch the Senior Bowl again?
The players that stood out to me from the Senior Bowl where/are
Manny Lawson
D'Brickashaw Ferguson
Gabe Watson
Cedric Griffin
Nick Mangold
DeAngelo Williams
Moss
Chad Jackson
I'm sure they were others, but those are the ones that come to mind.
