Steven:  After watching marlons film it's pretty clear he has an unteachable instinct for the ball. On every play he knows where the ball is and always finds his way to the ball. He plays at an extremely high speed no matter what he is doing. His lock down corner abilities are incredible for a highschool player. He reminds me a lot of dee milliner former CB for Alabama. If he does let you catch the ball he will punish you and make you not want to catch it again. He is truly the full package at CB and fits Perfect to that Nick Saban CB mold. Although no matter where he decides to go he will be great.

 

Kyle: Marlon Humphrey...possesses good height on a strong very well built frame, range is very important and he covers a lot of ground quick!! He has the size,speed,hips and football smarts to be a top cornerback in college. Marlon does a great job reading the QB's and he does a great job playing

the ball in front of him. He has great anticipation skills, his ball and awareness skill's are impressive. Marlon play's very well in the man to man
scheme but he might enter college more ready to be a cover 2 boundary defender. his transitions are very sharp and quick. Marlon shows very
solid run support skills,and very strong tacklling skills. Marlon Humphrey's is a great athlete and could see immediate playing time as

a freshman in college!

 

Eddie:  Although, Marlon Humphrey has elite measureables and speed, what separates him from all the other CBs is between his ears.  The ability to predict plays and bait quarterbacks is second to none.  He has great confidence and rightfully so.  This confidence can translate to great leadership at the next level.  It, also, can turn to over-confidence which can hurt him.  I'm thinking he will easily go to the NFL as an early draft pick but he has to want it.  Huge potential!
