"Twenty yr old, loose hipped, elite mover that mirrors like a doppelganger and is a sure fire future all pro if he's got enough dawg in him."
Strengths:
Loose hipped, elite mover that attacks the catch point with good ball skills. Mirrors well and can run with anyone. Long levered and gets adequately tactile across the route.
Recovers well and athletically can clean up his mistakes. Hard nosed and aggressive in run support. Just 20yrs old and brimming with upside. High character and has an athletic lineage.
Gonzalez has a unique ability to recover from false steps because of his agility and burst. His floor is especially high with his athletic traits and the ceiling is all about how determined he is to be that guy.
Weaknesses:
Finesse, hesitant, and can be bullied at the top of the route and in contested situations.
Overall:
Gonzalez is an elite size, speed athlete for the position that flashes smothering coverage ability. He's loose hipped and quick footed, especially for his length and can mirror just about anyone.
His lesser than ideal technique, re handwork at the los, route recognition or tackling form are all coachable and to be expected for a guy that's only a rsoph. He's a high floor prospect that's potentially an all pro caliber pro corner if he's got a dawg in him.
