    610 said he's faaast, but his FORTY was 4.49.

    He played inside and out in college and supposedly has real good hips.

    Seems like a low-ceiling talent to me. Hit his peak in college. Hope I'm wrong.

    #141 HOU: John Reid – CB/Penn State

    Technically sound with good anticipation and reaction. Nickel type that can mirror the quick slots and competes hard for the ball. Smart kid.#2020NFLDraft

    #Texans take Penn State CB John Reid at 141. Fast feed and fluid hips. Good and sticky in man coverage but solid in zone, too. Lacks size, length, strength.

    That time of year again…the guys I like more than most in the 2020 Draft class:

    Josh Jones
    Netane Muti
    Jonah Jackson
    Michael Pittman Jr.
    Jauan Jennings
    Julian Okwara
    Willie Gay Jr.
    John Reid
    Geno Stone
    Kenny Robinson Jr.#VaultMe

    Really really like this pick. he’s like a honey badger type imo .Tons of energy and instincts. I think this guy will be the surprise pick in the draft .

    Just for the record, Penn and Penn St are very different places.

    I don’t think it’s out of the realm that he’s our nickel/3rd safety type player

    Honey badger was a ball hawk and highlight reel playmaker. Had consideration for Heisman. Aside from size, what do you see to make you think he is a "honey badger type"?

    I watched a few games and his play and energy gave me that vibe. Similar size yes and of course we know Matthieu had the better college career no doubt but if I had one word that gives me the feeling this guy will be better than college is instincts ...you can see how he lets up when he needs to and that takes split second decision making , smart player with instincts and energy is my kind of players and they typically do better in nfl when these attributes are there

    I like him! He will probably be the third DB with ability to fill starter role if need be.
