Russ Lande's summary:
Prince is a very good athlete. He has good size, strength and a musulcar build which allows him to match up against any receiver in the country. He shows great toughness to jam receivers off the line and redirect there route pattern with ease. He also uses his toughness and size to attack downhill against the run and force the ball back inside to other defenders. When tackling ball carriers he shows a physicality that most corners lack and wraps up well to be a sure tackler. He will need to fine tune some technique issues with his backpedal, which should help him to turn and run better with receiver and to transition and close quicker out of his pedal - He has the hips, foot quicks and athleticism to be very good in these areas if he improves his technique. Overall, Prince Amukamara is a sure fire late 1st / high 2nd round selection and if he can become more consistent with his backpedal and improve vs double moves he could become a very good starting CB in the NFL. In the end, I think he will turn out to be a good, solid CB, but will never become an elite, all pro.
Nolan from PFW:
Sculpted, Instinctive, well-coached cover man with the speed, twitch, instincts and takling ability desired in a number 1 cornerback at the next level. Lacks elite defensive play making skills but should be good for a long time. TOP 15
NFL write up:
OVERVIEW
Amukamara has the size, speed and awareness to start from day one and turn into one of the league's finer players at the cornerback position. Takes advantage of his instincts and smarts in zone coverage but also has the ability to hold up when asked to cover on an island. Possesses good overall ball skills and hands. Will help out and support the run. Durable, aggressive, competitive and hard-working. No major weaknesses in his game, but isn't a true burner in terms of straight-line speed. Amukamara will likely be selected early in the first round, possibly in the top 10.
