Marcell Gipson
School: Wyoming
Position: CB
Bio: Three-year starter who finished with 53/1/4 as a senior and 71 tackles with seven pass defenses as a junior.
Positive: Adequately sized cornerback who is best facing the action. Physical, mixes it up with receivers throughout the route, and works hard to get up the field to make plays against screen passes and the run. Displays a burst of closing speed and the ability to drive out of his plant. Effective when receivers are in front of him.
Negative: Slow following receivers off the line, loses in transition, and is usually a half step late in man coverage. Does not display the ability to stay downfield with opponents.
Analysis: Gipson has been an effective run-defending cornerback in college but possesses unpolished ball skills. He's a special teams prospect with potential as a dime back in zone coverage.
