Game Film Evaluated:
Purdue (2014)
Northwestern (2014)

Pros: Playmaker in coverage, catches it like a receiver. He attacks the ball in the air, he wants it. He will undercut routes.

Cons: Plays a lot of off man and zone coverage. Was not used at the LOS nor experience jamming receivers. Does not show a great desire to get involved in tackling.


Summary: Doran Grant is an underrated corner prospect who can be a playmaker in the secondary, will get his share of interceptions and make a lot of plays in coverage. He played a ton of deep cover 3 and cover 4 coverage at Ohio State. He is more of a spectactor when it comes to tackling and not wanting to overly get involved in the action. Grant projects as a late 3rd round pick who needs to improve his technique, better a complete corner in coverage and atleast be an average tackler. You can’t teach his ability to attack the ball and make it his when he’s in position to haul a INT.
