BleedinBlue Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 CB Vinnie Anderson - 6'2", 205lb 4.52 went to a small school in Florida, but drew a lot of attention from the pro scouts just before the draft. Anyway, here's a highlight film on him. He looks like he has the mojo and should compete for one of the open corner positions, which will be very competitive this year.

Treehugger Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 He's got an excellent tackling technique, especially for a CB. That's made me a fan immediately. I hope we don't train that out of him. Seems to have great awareness too, both of the ball and running lanes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the competition he's faced is a very low level so it's hard to know how he'd play against far better competition. Our 6th and 7th pics (WRight and Woodsen) played against top level competition, but what I like about Anderson is that he's 6'2" rather than 5'11" like Wright and Woodson, so he's better able to go up against the taller WR's. Also, his timed speed is faster than both Wright and Woodson. I guess we'll have to see how things shake out in camp. It's amazing how often an undrafted rookie makes a team and becomes a prized player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think both Wright and Woodson had identical stats...size wise and speed wise and both were clocked around 4.62. I could be wrong, but that's what I remember hearing on TV after they were drafted.
