#12 Rock Ya-Sin, CB, Temple
This young man was the most intriguing draft prospect for me coming into last week. Rock Ya-Sin is a former one-year grad transfer from Presbyterian, who quickly earned one of those highly touted single-digit numbers at Temple due to his toughness. He has good length at 6’2” and is an impressive overall athlete.

Ya-Sin has a special ability to flip his head when overextending and recovering against receivers coming out of their break by using a speed turn. While he has the top-end burners to run with guys down the field, his most intriguing quality to me is the fluidity of the hips. The one-year starter can gear down and get himself into position with ease.

He is a PBU-specialist who really contests every single pass to force those incompletions, which made his one-on-one matchups with South Carolina’s Deebo Samuels such a joy to watch, as he seemed to search the competition continuously.
Outside of that guy, Ya-Sin pretty much locked everybody down and displayed the ability to faceguard receivers without making premature contact. His combination of athleticism and competitiveness has put him in first-round conversations.
