Storm Duck Player Summary:

The  Positives

  • A+ name
  • Really good footwork
  • Good in man and zone
  • Can play press or off
  • Aggressive against blockers

The Negatives

  • You can see the “Oh shit” moments and mental errors
    • This note was from the 2022 tape, not 2023
  • Get his head around on deep throws
  • Slips off more tackles than you’d like to see
  • Don’t believe he was an every down starter.
  • Needs to use his arms more to break up passes. He gave up more passes than he should’ve due to this
    • Occasionally use the wrong arm to try to swat passes

Storm Duck is a prospect that we are super upset about, and of no fault of his own. In the 2 games we watched from 2023, Duck played probably 50% of snaps against Kentucky, but next to nothing against ND. If Louisville thought they had two corners better fine, but we are telling you Duck could’ve started for many other schools at CB. He’s got stuff to clean up and get better at no doubt, but he’s a really good coverage prospect. Good in man and zone, press or off, and he’s got good footwork that helps him break on route and mirror receivers. Not to mention he’s aggressive against blockers and wants to be involved in the run game. We believe he should be taken on Day 3, but due to lack of snaps this year it feels more likely that he’s going to end up a UDFA.
