Round 3, Pick 96 - Cincinnati Bengals - Brandon Ghee


Brandon Ghee, CB, Wake Forest
Ht: 5’ 11 5/8” Wt: 192

EMQB’s analysis on the pick:  Ghee is a classic example of having exceptional track speed but the game tape not confirming that speed.  I suspect the Bengals will try to make him a nickel corner and that is what best suits his game.  Being matched up against the second or third best receiver on the other team will play to Ghee's strengths.  

Pro Football Weekly’s scouting report: A former track standout with big-time speed, Ghee’s best season came as a sophomore, and his inconsistent, undisciplined play the last two seasons is unnerving. A finesse man- cover corner with moldable talent, Ghee lacks ball skills and does not play to his workout numbers, based on which he will be overdrafted. Could bring early value as a gunner but has bust potential.
NFL projection: Second- to third-round pick.

Lindy’s Sports scouting report:  Ghee is athletically gifted, but seems more interested in making the big hit than the interception.  In fact, some scouts feel his pro best position will be safety.  There is merit there, considering his production as a tackler and lack of big plays in coverage.
