Northern Iowa's Profile for Quentin Scott

Never really put anything together in college until this past season. Showed well in the week of practices prior to the Texas v. The Nation Game.

In 2009, he finally flashed the ability to go with his impressive physical characteristics, starting 11 games with 49 tackles, 3.5 TFLs, 5 picks, 4 other PDs, 1 fumble recovery and 1 blocked kick.

Scott was nicknamed “Taylor Mays” by some of his teammates at the Texas v. The Nation Game. He’s a big safety with the ability to actually backpedal, turn his hips, and cover. Has a solid closing burst for a big man. Physical freak who is a one-year wonder. Young, with upside. Does have hands and a knack for the pick.

Somewhat of an OLB-SS tweener who many feel might be better suited for outside linebacker. Has been a very late bloomer who only really played well in '09 for UNI. Lacks some of the instinctual-diagnostic-technique things you might expect from a guy with such limited collegiate experience.

Very hard to assess. Do enough NFL people know about him? Will they overlook his lack of a real resume? 6th-priority UDFA.
