Justin Perkins
School: Connecticut
Ht: 5-10.5 Wt: 170 40: 4.55 Year: 5Sr
Bio: Started three of the past four seasons
posting 38/5/12 as a senior. Missed the 2002
season after tearing a ligament in his right knee.
Positives: Zone cornerback with solid ball skills.
Takes proper angles to the play and always
working to get a hand in, then knock away
the throw. Displays a good move on the ball
and displayed improved instincts as a senior.
Negatives: Has a thin build and struggles in man or
press coverage. Occasionally gets turned and
slow locating the ball. Lacks the top break on
the throw.
Analysis: A prospect with adequate
physical skills, Perkins has a slight chance as a
dime back for a zone coverage defense.
