Greg Little, Cleveland Browns, 59th Pick, 2nd Round, 2011 NFL Draft


Little, Greg North Carolina 6024 231 4.51
Three-year starter. Did not play in 2010 due to a ruling by the
NCAA on accepting extra benefits. Talented and athletic as any wide receiver in the 2011 draft. The sticky wicket in Little’s
production lies in the quarterback position where TJ Yates threw more interceptions than touchdown passes and consistently missed open receivers in 2009. The upside for the big receiver was that almost every catch he made was spectacular and magical. Has started at both running back and wide receiver during his career. Does it all – blocks, catches, and runs strong after catch. Slashes through arm tackles and finishes the play. Goes up after the ball at the high point with his strong hands and positions his body between the ball and defender. An impact player with long arms and big hands. Possesses natural ball skills. Plucks the ball away from his body. Has the foot quickness to beat press coverage. Can avoid and shows a burst to get upfield and separate. Big and strong enough for inside breaking routes. Good hip flexibility and knee bend. Adjusts to the flight of the ball and competes to catch it. For complete report see Ourlads Guide to the NFL Draft.
