Ourlads' Profile:
2018 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about GODWIN IGWEBUIKE: Northwestern, 5113 213 4.44. Three-year starter and team captain in 2017. From Pickerington, OH. Physical strong safety prospect with decent size and good strength for the position. Has some linebacker qualities. Tracks and adjusts well moving downhill. Fits the alley and makes a lot of plays close to the line. He is a fundamentally sound tackler. Makes the big hit and normally finishes. Physical taking on blocks and can shed with leverage while maintaining his path to the ball. At his best in run support. A little stiff in some movements and is not extremely fluid in his pedal. However he has good playing speed and covers a lot of ground in pursuit. Adjusts well and makes plays in space. A smart player in zone coverage, sticks to responsibility with awareness and the ability to react to multiple receivers in a zone. Sees the threats and reacts. Very good in the short zones with the ability to undercut an intermediate route. Shows a good break on the ball and gets his hands to the catch point. Strong hands for the interception. Plays quarters coverage well and is solid in the deep zones. Not the most dynamic change of direction, has some stiffness moving laterally. Has some match-up ability as a result of good fundamental technique and enough speed to stay with a receiver. Struggles at times with double moves but shows the ability to stay with a vertical and cover across the field. Good in kick coverage showing speed to cover a kick along with tackling skill. May project well as a sub package nickel linebacker. 2017 stats: 78 T, 1.5 TFL, 9 PBU, 1 QBH, 1 FF, 2 INT. BTR:left 4.58, right 4.49. OSR:2/21. Fourth/ fifth round.
