Overview

Carr was a three-year starter and a two-year All-American for perennial Division II power Grand Valley State. He brought in 11 interceptions over the past three years and broke up another 37 passes during that time. He has a ways to go before competing for a starting or nickel back position, but his upside is high enough to warrant a late-round selection.

Analysis

Positives: Prototypical size for corner, tall with decent build and nice arm span … Shows good hands for the interception and can high-point the ball … Turns and runs with receivers well, showing good speed and the ability to maintain position … Plays in the slot at times, but is best on the outside.

Negatives: A better athlete than football player … Does not play as physically or aggressively as you'd like with his size … He does not press much and is only adequate coming up in run support or getting off receiver blocks … Marginal backpedal, and plays a bit high … Rough transition against smaller, quicker receivers.

High School

Prepped at Flint Carman-Ainsworth with current Lakers Todd Carter and Dan Skuta … First-Team All-Big 9 Conference performer as a senior DB … Caught 24 passes for 431 yards and four TDs as a WR, and tallied 53 tackles with two interceptions as a DB … Also participated in basketball.

Son of John and Kathy Carr
