PCS Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Welcome to the Commanders young man. Good luck. NFL.com Draft Profile HEIGHT 6' 0" WEIGHT 201 lbs Prospect Grade 5.68 Quote Overview Well-proportioned and well-built, Holmes spent his entire career at cornerback but has size and physicality that is more reminiscent of a safety. He can lose the route when he gets too aggressive in press and he doesn't play with the makeup burst to recover quickly. He's a physical ball-challenger when he's in position and can step up and support the run effectively. Holmes appears suited for off-man and zone coverages. He has a chance to be a late-round pick and could get a look at safety if cornerback doesn't work out. Strengths Above-average size and length. Plays big once he's on top of the receiver. Hard to create catch space against him once he's tight. Flashes explosive movements when playing the football. Run-through striker to dislodge the football. Finishes quickly with good tackle strength after catch. Physical enough in run support for consideration at safety. *Click Link For More* 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always A Commander Never A Captain Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Sounds like someone who could be competing for Buffalo Nickel. His weaknesses sound like a deal breaker at outside corner, but matter less when you play everything 15 yards from LoS and in. Position switch could be a diamond in the rough.

Commander Wolffe Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 (edited) Looks physical on that clip. BN might be an option for him. Wolffe~ Edited May 3, 2022 by Commander Wolffe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forever A Redskin Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Reports from his pro day was a 39 inch vert and 4.44 40yd dash. Doesn't sound slow to me. Somehow this guy flew under the radar. I'd be interested if we see him as a corner or a safety/BN. Or maybe we see him as primarily a slot corner? There isn't a whole lot of tape on him but the snippits I can find about him are promising. Anyone find anything juicy on this pick? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forever A Redskin Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 (edited) If you use his Pro Day 40yd dash rumored time of 4.44 I'm sure the score would be higher. Another diamond in the rough? Interesting note: when Rivera called him to let him know he was gonna be a commander he told Ron "You just got the best cornerback in the draft" Gotta love the confidence.

Commander Wolffe Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) Nice to see a CB that plays physical. Interested to see Holmes in training camp as the depth at this position is uninspiring after St-Juste. ~Wolffe Edited June 20, 2022 by Commander Wolffe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
