  Draft Scout by Conference









  The top cornerback prospects in the NFL draft this season share a common trait - size. Big, quick and athletic defenders, professional defensive backs tend to have specific physical traits. Former Cal cornerback Traveon Beck does not share these traits. At 5'9" and 165 lbs., the Bears' standout is considered by many scouts to be undersized. But what Beck lacks in size is made up in his coverage and tackling ability, as well as his specialty covering the slot. Beck is a force to be reckoned with in open space. His ability to stay low and wide makes it difficult for receivers to get around him, as Beck has shown a knack for bringing down runners in one-on-one situations to force short gains or losses. Where most players would easily get beaten, Beck is able to use his low center of gravity and wrap up players regardless of the difference in size. Beck's coverage in the slot is also highly touted - he is considered one of the best nickelbacks in the country. While his small stature can make it difficult to get off blocks, his quickness can also allow him to get around them. Should he make an NFL roster, he'll likely have to gain muscle mass in order to compete with large, athletic professional receivers. - Daily Californian
