He's an excellent tackler and blitzer, and great at anticipating angles on jet sweeps, runs, and screens. Seems to be adept at shallow zones, but how is he in deep zones and man coverage down the field? I didn't see many plays here showing highlights of his awareness as a traditional safety free safety. His play style reminds me a lot of Tyrann Mathieu.
To be honest, I've only included plays in coverage where he's credited with a pass break up or INT (and the Nebraska one to end the game where he was not credited with a PBU but I remembered it myself). So there's probably several plays where he had great coverage but no trackable statistic and I really didn't feel like watching every single snap for every game like I already do for the individual defensive linemen.
If he can live up, the Bengals secondary will be top 3. Bates is already a top 10 S with Chidobe, Hilton & Bell all playing their best football, Bengals should have a great take away defense
@@isaiahwatkins1502 he’s made incredible plays though that nobody gives him credit for lol. Most of the year he was actually above average just unfortunately gave up a critical TD to Kupp in the SB. But lets be honest nobody was shutting Kupp down
@@JRadiCal33 this goes beyond the SB. Apple has been average at best his entire career. I knew he was going to give up that last TD because he couldn't stick Kupp on his absolute best day.
@@isaiahwatkins1502 he allowed 14 yards in the SB and 1 touchdown lol I understand if you judge Apple by his previous years but when he cane to the Bengals this was by far his best year and even had one of the best pff grades for a corner the last like 6 weeks or something so yeah he’s average but he can definitely still get better now that he’s in a system that fits his play style
Please get this guy, San Fran! If he drops to the end of the 1st or early 2nd, it would be a no-brainer to trade up for him. You need a playmaker in the secondary.
This guys gonna go earlier in the draft than people think. I think he's goes as high as 11 to Washington. He's a better scheme fit than Kyle Hamilton is for them.
Bengals need to move Dax into the Slot CB Role he would be a TOP 5 Slot guy guaranteed!!! Wish they would n draft another Fast physical Safety. Letting Vonn Bell Walk was a horrible decision!!!
@@snave59 I posted it 2 weeks ago dummy. I wanted the Bills to draft him, I was making prediction if you will. Obviously I didn't post it after the draft
He's so smart and instinctual. Bengals defense just got even better.
Yes, sir. Who Dey
I agree.He seems to have a knack, for being around the ball.
So glad we got Dex hill we definitely got squad WHOOOO DEYYYY #BENGALS 🧡🖤🧡🖤🧡🖤
WHO DEY ALL DAY! #BENGALS
It Dax. Not Dex.
Bengals really got one of the top 5 backs in the 2022 draft.
Wow, wow, wow and he's now a Bengal. What a pick.
Daxton & Minkah Together 💛💛🖤💛🖤💛🖤💛🖤💛🖤
Not happening.Bengals grabbed him.
Welcome to Cincinnati ! 🐯
Who Dey!!
Welcome to the Bengals
Welcome to bengals 🎉
Nailed it
How did you know so soon whodey bro
@@codyeggleston7003 I'm excited I think he will be solid
@@MrJerryscool him and mike Hilton and bell let’s go can’t forget bates
@@codyeggleston7003 Bengals are stacked lol it's amazing

Def looks like a sole box safety
@@jaredthomas7950 undersized for that role. Fs, slot and dime is more like it
Who Dey!!!

dont forget Apple
@@JRadiCal33 nah, Apple needs a reduced role, he's average at best

Bengals got a great one
Bengals took him with 31st pick.

now a bengal
Welcome to the Philadelphia Eagles 😤
Nope.he's with Bengals.
This guys gonna go earlier in the draft than people think. I think he's goes as high as 11 to Washington. He's a better scheme fit than Kyle Hamilton is for them.
He went at 31.
KC needs this cat

Still wonder why he didn't go to Oklahoma state.
Welcome to Bills Mafia
He is with Bengals.
@@snave59 I posted it 2 weeks ago dummy. I wanted the Bills to draft him, I was making prediction if you will. Obviously I didn't post it after the draft
Also look at Jalen Petre Baylor
Please Baltimore he’s going to be so good
Who Dey
Ravens passed on him .He's with Bengals.
🐅🐅🐅
We got the better overall safety , after seeing this I’m
Glad we didn’t get Daxton hill, he looks like a strict box safety / nickel
Pat's better grab him. He'd be perfect for what we need.
Patriots could have taken him,but didn't.
@@snave59 they need to fire bill from GM position. That was the stupidest pick ever smh😤😤😤😤
I think this guy would make a pretty good receiver.
Welcome to Steeler nation
Who Dey
Nope.He's a Bengal now.
Can’t help but wonder what this kid would have been like under Nic Saban.
He's fast and instinctual. Not a banger, doesn't always wrap when tackling. Best suited for slot. 3rd Round
😂😂😂😂😂 hell no
early second/ maybe even a late first rounder....
lol
You are slow af lmaooo
😆
