    Long has 18 catches allowed, career. And passes defensed = 17 + 3 INTs is 20 and that is two more than “completions allowed”

    More plays on the ball than completions allowed?

    That’s a crazy stat.

    There’s even more.

    Long gave up 130 yards and a TD over his ENTIRE Michigan career

    The longest pass Long gave up all season was 12 yards
    Never allowed more than two catches in a game

    – Michigan CB David Long is the definition of what it means to be a shutdown corner. According to Pro Football Focus, he was one of the best defensive players all of last year. While you won’t see the number of picks or pass break ups you’d might like to see on the statsheet, there’s a reason for that. Not many opposing offenses choose to target him. He only allowed 9 receptions all season & ranked 2nd with a 32.3% forced incompletion percentage. While he is ranked among the top corners in the draft, he rarely gets talked about enough.

    rams seem to have a knack for finding dbs. especially in the later rounds.

    i like everything i read about this guy.

    only things maybe are he’s not long limbed. and he doesn’t have deep speed although i think 4.45 is fast enough.

    Just looking at some of his highlights, his top end speed seems fine.

    Rams CB David Long allowed a reception on just 29.0% of his targeted passes – the best rate in the class, and in the country.
