PCS Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Welcome to the Commanders. Have fun. PERCY BUTLER LOUISIANA Safety HEIGHT. 6' 0" WEIGHT 194 lbs ARMS 31 5/8" HANDS. 9 1/8" Combine Results 40 Yard Dash. 4.36 Bench Press Vertical Jump 31.5 Broad Jump 123 NFL.com Draft profile Quote Overview Upside free safety with feast-or-famine tackle approach that creates inconsistencies teams will need to have corrected. Butler vacillates between punishing hitting and taking arm-tackling angles in the open field. He's average in man coverage but plays with instincts and catch disruption from zone. He might see an uptick in his future value if he can get his run tackling solidified. Butler's outstanding work as a gunner adds to his draft day value and likelihood of sticking around the league. Strengths Absolute stud as special-teams performer. Rang up coverage team tackle stats all four years. Creates highlight-reel hits as gunner. Impressive burst becomes impressive play speed. Alley runner who will lay the lumber to ball-carriers. Should be able to race from the hash over the top. Displays a fair amount of instincts from zone. Hard strikes to pass-catchers dislodge the ball. Length/angles to swipe at the catch from around receiver's frame. Click link for more 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drowland Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I took him 7th Rd in the ES Mock draft. He'll make the 53 on special teams at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDawg Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Fast, athletic, long limbed and rangey. Won’t post the cons to the pick as I am hoping to manifest a positive outlook. Welcome, you have the tools. Help us win. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinsfan93 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I like Butler. Sure he’s not gonna be the buffalo nickel but this allows Kam or maybe even McCain too. We don’t have the fastest guys in the secondary even at corner and need someone who can run. I don’t think comparing him to Apke is fair until we see how he tackles.

TradeTheBeal! Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 3 rockets in the butt is too many. Put one rocket back. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stone Cold Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 The team has seen something in Hudson to keep him around. I’m a fan of his but at the olb spot where he can run free and chase the ball. Not sure how he’d figure in the BN…I guess anyway to get him on the field. He’s a tremendous athlete at lb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
