STRONG POINTS WEAKNESSES
A very sure tackler, with the ability to chase the play sideline to sideline. Shows good footwork and use of arms to shed blockers. Has good speed to chase down plays, and to help in the return game. His hands need to improve, as he will drop what should be sure interceptions. Attended a small school, therefor not measured against the best athletes.
SUMMARY
Trevor Debraga has average NFL size for a SS, at 5’11 190 pounds. He is a very solid tackling safety used mostly in run support. He has the speed to allow him to chase down plays from sideline to sideline, and to occasionally rush the QB. Is only OK in coverage ability, but he could be coached up there. His hands are not great, as he will drop surefire interceptions. Depending on combine numbers I predict Debraga to be drafted in the 6th round.
