I was looking at some of the Huddle Report archived Draft Evaluations and thought I would look up some of the Seahawks.
Here's one for Richard Sherman:
BOTTOM LINE
Richard is very raw at this point of his career. When you watch him play on film, his talent just screams out at you. This kid looks to intercept the ball...he needs to intercept the ball...he wants to intercept the ball. He is smart and if he gets fooled once, he remembers and does not get fooled twice. A soon as Richard learns better techniques, he will be able to fool a lot of QB's into making bad passes and intercepting them in the future. He can help right away if you use him to defend in the Red zone and to return punts on special teams. He does have to learn how to tackle. Watching him tackle right now is like watching two girls fighting in a bar. The only technique I don't see him using when he is tackling someone is trying to gouge a player's eyes out. But, in his defense, he does get the player to the ground. He is not afraid of contact; he just doesn't know how to break down, collect himself and tackle. He might never be a great form tackler, but he can learn techniques like turning plays in on sweeps and making players cut to gain angles when tackling so that he can stay away from injuries. Richard has a ton of talent to be an impact corner for the team that drafts him, but he has to be coachable and stay away from injuries because of poor tackling techniques. I think he can do it. This kid might wind up being better than a few first rounders in the draft in the future. With good combine workouts and a great interview, Richard could easily move up to being selected in the first three rounds of this draft. Most of the time, CB's like Richard get drafted later in a draft, but Richard could be an exception. I don't usually give nicknames to third round draft choices, but in this case Richard is making me make an exception so I'm calling him Richard (The Interceptor) Sherman.
Not a bad evaluation considering how Sherman has turned out.
Here's the page if anyone has extra time on their hands and wants to check out a player.
Not all of them are evaluated, but a lot are.
