Pros: One of the most savvy press corners in this draft, Amos displays outstanding technique and positioning in press coverage, and his quick, fluid feet allow him to change direction quickly and stick with receivers on in-breaking routes. With over 31″ arms, his length allows him to control the receiver off the line of scrimmage and force him off his route, making him take the outside track down the field. His biggest question coming into the draft process was speed, and he put speed concerns to bed when he ran a 4.43 40 at the combine. In zone coverage, Amos displays solid spatial awareness, and his instincts allow him to break on the ball quickly enough to make a play on the ball. He is also great at tracking the ball down the field, even with with his back turned to the ball in coverage. He rarely gives up the big play down the field, and there are several games on tape where opposing quarterbacks simply avoid him when covering a receiver one-on-one on deep routes.

Cons: When you watch Amos’ tape, he possesses sufficient speed to keep up with most receivers, but he doesn’t have that second gear of speed to keep up with the burners at receiver. He is a one-speed player who is not an elite accelerator. He also plays too loosely in coverage, giving the receiver too much room to work with on intermediate and underneath routes. Improving blocking technique and taking smarter tackling angles will be key in his development as well.

Overview: Amos’ tape was as solid as you’d expect from a potential first-round pick, and he has done exactly what he needed to do this offseason by running a fast 40. While I would not be shocked if he sneaks into Round 1, the high demand for quarterbacks, receivers, and defensive linemen will likely push him into Day 2. He should see significant playing time as a rookie.
