Devin McCourty had an outstanding rookie year and may have won the NFL Rookie of the Year honors if Ndamukong Suh did not have such a dominating season.What Ourlads Guide to the NFL Draft said about McCourty:


McCourty, Devin Rutgers 5108 193 4.47
Three-year starter. Good athletic ability and finish speed. Fluid
hips. Can turn and run. Active in run support. Can stick his foot
in the ground and drive quickly on the ball in front of him.
Shorter than ideal, but can leap and has good timing. Plays
smart and aggressive. Good recognition and reaction to run/
pass. Instinctive with good anticipation. Thinks on his feet and
can make quick adjustments. Quick reactions to play off blocks
and wrap tackle. Productive in his play. Has 245 career tackles.
Has only 4 interceptions though, so question his ball skills at
times. Good foot quickness and burst. Consistent, durable, and
reliable in his play. Will contribute on all special teams. Had
seven blocked kicks and plays a gunner on punt coverage. He
also returned a kickoff for a touchdown against Connecticut.
Twin brother Jason plays for the Tennessee Titans. Stats in
2009 include 80 tackles, 7 1/2 tackles for loss, 1 interception,
and 10 passes broken up. BTR:left 4.50, right 4.59. OSR:4/29.
