Ourlads' Profile:

2018 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about CARLTON DAVIS: Auburn, 6010 206 4.55. Junior entry and three-year starter from Miami, FL. Second-team All-America and first-team All-SEC. Good size and strength for the position. He is a true lockdown corner who does an outstanding job in press. Does not get a lot of action his way as he is often in press and simply shuts receivers down. Rarely gives up a free release off the line. Shows good patience on the release ignoring the double move away from leverage. Uses a strong off-hand jam and can ride a receiver almost out of bounds. Does a good job staying in phase with a smooth turn and run. Mirrors cuts well and shows the speed to cover most receivers deep. Has been beaten occasionally by a top speed receiver. When backed off uses a quick shuffle pedal to maintain cushion and shows a quick break and drive on the short throw. No wasted movement. Rarely involved in the run game but is physical with receivers and shows good form tackling skill. When playing zone shows good awareness and the ability to react to multiple receivers in a zone. Solid NFL prospect. 2017 stats: 36 T, 11 PBU, 1 FF, 1 INT. BTR:left 4.88, right 4.82. OSR:19/41. Second/third round. (A-32 3/4, H-8 7/8, VJ-34, SS-4.31).
