Oklahoma State's Profile for Perrish Cox

Senior Bowl invitee. Measurements - arm: 30.0" hand: 8.5" Notes: Broad shoulders but smallish frame.

Big, physical, well-built corner who comes up to force the run and is a willing tackler and good hitter. Tough gamer who played through a painful separated shoulder in '09. Fine athlete with great speed. Good bump-style corner who gets a nice jam and can turn and run with any receiver. Breaks up passes (19 in '09). Plays on special teams coverage units and is a sensational punt/kick returner. Displays great lateral quickness and consistently makes the first man miss. Awesome acceleration and can take any kick to the house.

Very raw as a defender. Takes poor angles in the open field and misses tackles. Tends to drift and seems somewhat lost in zone coverage. Can lock up his man, but sometimes fails locate the ball. When he does, does not always high-point it, resulting in completions despite blanket coverage. Suspended from Cowboy's bowl game for missing curfew twice in the preceding week, not a good sign from a character standpoint.

Developmental-type prospect who may go as high as the first round due to his great speed and sensational return abilities but may slide to the fourth due to character issues. Don't expect much on defense early, but the tools are there to one day start.
