Antwaun Molden SELECTED BY: Houston Texans Round 3(16)

SI Grade 3.60 GRADING SYSTEM

BIOGRAPHY: Broke into the starting lineup as a senior posting career numbers of 71/2/9 after 36 tackles as a junior. Began his college career at Toledo. Ohio Valley Conference indoor sprint champion.

POSITIVES: Athletic and explosive cornerback with good size and speed. Physical, effective in man coverage and fluid transitioning to run with opponents. Easily stays with receivers downfield and displays a burst of speed. Possesses the ability to recover and flashes on the scene.

NEGATIVES: Displays poor hands for the interception. Struggles staying with receivers out of breaks. Still refining his overall game.

ANALYSIS: Molden burst onto the scene last year and has opposing quarterbacks purposely throwing away from him. He is an exceptional athlete who could be used at either cornerback or safety and offers a good degree of upside potential.

PROJECTION: Late Third Round
