PLAYER ANALYSIS
Ascending bump-and-run cornerback with rare size and length who leans on good movement skills to overcome his average long speed. Although he plays with good route recognition, he'll allow some separation from breaks, but he's quick to hug-up and close the restrict the throwing window. He's not a burner, but he uses his size ball skills to make plays on the football down the field. Layne's traits could make him a fit in a variety of coverages, but he needs consistent toughness to help support against the run.
