Oregon State Safety Kitan Oladapo has stacked two excellent days together in Mobile.
Using the Senior Bowl to get the attention he deserves, the hybrid DB has done himself plenty of favors both on the field and at the podium.
Here's his calling card, and why he's so good at it:
Man Coverage King
What separates Oladapo is his ability to mirror and match both WRs and tight ends, something that is increasingly needed, yet hard to find.
I asked Oladapo about what makes him so successful at the skill, and how it's allowed others around the country to take notice:
"You have to be able to run all day," said Oladapo when I asked why he's so good at man coverage. "At some point, you can look at splits and get tendencies from the offense but at the end of the day, you need good feet to be good at man coverage."
Luckily for Oladapo, his feet are a strong suit, with ideal technique to match plus traits. The only thing left for teams to figure out on Oladapo is where he stacks on their draft board.
After a week where his personality shined as right as his play on the field, it's safe to say he helped himself considerably ahead of the draft.
