Ourlads' Profile:
2020 Guide: What Ourlads' Scouting Services said about DAMON ARNETTE: Ohio State, 5115 195 4.53. Three-year starter, Fort Lauderdale, FL. Second-team All-Big 10 in 2019. Physical corner with experience at slot corner. Controlled fundamental backpedal in coverage. Maintains initial cushion putting him in position on passes in the quick game. Shows a quick powerful off hand jam in press. Can disrupt and lock out an upfield route. Stays in phase against vertical routes crowding receivers on the sideline. Flashes catch up speed. Has vision to see route combinations and the quarterback in zone coverage. Solid hard corner technique re-routing and balancing high-low routes. Has lateral agility to close voids in zone. Can be physical at the catch point. Has some big hits to separate receivers from the ball. Safety-like toughness in run support. Takes on stalk blocks with stiff hands and can quickly shed and drive through tackles. Some hang up in transition. Not always quick reacting on the throw. Will be overaggressive in jam and overplay a route break causing separation. Can be vulnerable to double moves off the line. Some question if his speed will play against elite NFL receivers. Will fit best with a team that emphasizes a variety of zone coverage and some press man. May project as a nickel in some defenses. 2019 stats: 35 T, 1 TFL, 8 PBU, 1 FF, 1 INT (1 TD). OSR:21/29. Third/fourth round. (A-30, H-9 1/8, VJ-DNP, SS-DNP).
