Chimdi Chekwa, Oakland Raiders, 113th Pick, 4th Round, 2011 NFL Draft

Chekwa, Chimdi Ohio State 5116 191 4.40
Three-year starter with good athletic ability and speed to run deep. Smooth in his turns with good hip flexibility. Has good size and short area quickness for the position. Has breakdowns at times, including not concentrating and letting a slower receiver go by him and beat him for a touchdown. A pass will bounce off his chest because he didn’t see it. Doesn’t always get his head around to find the ball (look and lean). Has toughness and is a reliable tackler. Needs pro skill development but has the tools to play. Experience in special teams coverage as a gunner. For complete report see Ourlads Guide to the NFL Draft.
