Scouting Notes
- Feet are quick as hell.
- Elite movement ability and flexibility.
- Perfect mirroring and fluidity.
- Tough and strong, great tackler.
Short Summary
Emmanuel Forbes is one of the more polarizing prospects in this Draft. The most important number to know is undoubtedly his interception numbers. With a whopping 14 career interceptions, he even broke the SEC pick-six record.
Granted, his weight is a huge concern. The 0th percentile isn’t easily overlooked in anything, and there are real concerns he can’t keep weight on. It’s hard to bet on outliers, but at the same time, Emmanuel Forbes is a positive outlier in many aspects. He has a great wingspan, and his playing ability is one of the best in this class.
If you were to bet on an outlier, Emmanuel Forbes is the one to bet on, his skills are unreal.
