Vileborg Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I watched some of his tape. He came up big in his biggest games. Creating turnovers and shutting down some good receivers. He was extremely clutch on the biggest stages. He scored a TD against WV that won that game and he picked off Baylor sparking their late come back win. Always around the ball, besides his 4 picks, he had two fumble recoveries, one for a TD. He also recovered a blocked field goal return for 90 yards for a TD. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kentwo Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Don’t know much about the guy. Is he a true outside guy or pure slot corner? He seems to be shorter bodied which makes me think slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Eagles did too. He went the pick before them and you could tell they weren’t expecting him gone which is why the clock almost winded all the way down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I consider someone a sleeper if they’re drafted late and end up being a solid starter. Hence people sleeping on them until late in the draft.

PoconoDon Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Like everyone else, I don't know anything about this kid. The little I can find out about him suggests he's backup quality. Time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeathByEagle Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 I grade this pick an B+ Great value for the selection. I liked this kid going into the draft. I know most didnt know who he was but I though he was similar to a Sheldon Brown type of player. Tough kid, excited to see him in Green. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pick six in the 2017 playoff game vs vikings is the last time a remember someone in our secondary coming up huge when we needed it most. Then we let that cb walk the next year(not sure where he went) That play changed the whole game really and completely deflated minny. I have no problem taking a chance on a cb with a nose for finding the endzone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were able to pay him more than we could so that's why he left. One cog in the machine, but a rather important cog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outlaw Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 I’ll admit to not knowing as much about McPhearson as I did some other guys, but I’ve come across a few articles calling him a hidden gem. Below is from the CBS list of winners/losers in the draft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgcd3 Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 I wanted him when they were making the pick and knew nothing about him the day before. That sums it up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letting him go was the right move. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
