2. Bobby McCain, CB Coming out of Memphis, I felt like McCain was extremely underrated. At his size, he’s a bit too small to go up against bigger receivers and consistently win, but McCain showed the ability to play the ball really well for his size and plenty of tenacity to be able to translate to the NFL. The Dolphins made him a 5th round draft choice, and now McCain is fighting for the nickel cornerback spot and a role on special teams. I think eventually, he’s going to be a really good nickel cornerback but it could take some time. In the first preseason game against Chicago, McCain finished with a negative PFF grade and had two penalties.
He’s young, but he’s talented and definitely a player worth watching tonight against the Panthers.
