Pros
- Man Coverage
Smooth mover that can pedal and break or play in the hip pocket of pass catchers - Hand Timing
Can disrupt passes earning PBU’s as he plays the pocket with excellent timing - Recovery Speed
Alignment indicates that he can carry vertical releases and stay glued to the WR in obvious deep-shot situations
Cons
- Play strength
Isn’t the most physical and can be exploited in the run game - Catch Point
Struggles to win at in contested catch situations, losing battles to bigger or more physical players - Awareness
Can let plays get by him that more instinctual corners wouldn’t
Eval:
Pritchett is a pesky corner that aligns in tight spacings, daring wideouts to win deep. He presented a mix of vertical and underneath coverage ability that staunched many of the SEC’s receivers. His length and agility will make him a considerable prospect as we approach the draft.
Floor Comp: Coby Bryant
Functional corner best suited to play pure coverage.
Ceiling Comp: James Bradberry
Tenured corner who sticks thanks to his ability to match WRs.
