Scott has good size at 6'2" and demonstrated some ability to get to the football. He has the ability to play safety or in the slot and the Packers will appreciate that versatility. He is most likely to contribute on special teams if he makes the team as a rookie. Scott's biggest play of the season was a 98-yard pick-six against Oklahoma and he also recovered a fumble in that game.

I can't find anyone who knows anything about this prospect. Must be a TCU alum out there somewhere. Good luck finding a scouting report on this guy. Sounds like Gute is back at the helm.

Why pick a DB when you can't stop the run? Especially one that runs a 4.6 40.
