The Miami Dolphins have selected cornerback Bobby McCain out of Memphis in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft, 145th overall.

While McCain's size may limit him to a slot role at the next level, his playmaking ability could certainly prove to be a valuable addition to the back end of Miami's defense before long.

Strengths 

  • Leaping ability and agility in small spaces are ideal.
  • Hands and ball skills are excellent - had 11 interceptions during junior and senior seasons.
  • Fights off blockers and plays bigger than his size. Will stick his nose in on run support.

Weaknesses

  • Small size will limit his potential to slot coverage.
  • Long speed is not a strength. Someone his size needs to be faster down the field.
  • Coverage skills are not ideal. Gets lost at times. Needs to have better awareness one-on-one.
