Sean Bunting, CB, Central Michigan
6001, 181, 4.51
Notes: From Macomb, MI. Redshirted in 2015. Appeared in all 13 games, making 1 start, collected 18 tackles, 2 interceptions and 7 pass breakups in 2016. Started all 13 games, posted 49 tackles, 0.5 tackles-for-loss, 5 INT, 10 PBU, 2 forced fumbles and 1 fumble recovery in 2017. Played in 12 games, starting 11, had 37 tackles, 3 TFL, 2 INT, 7 PBU, 2 FF and 1 blocked kick in 2018.
Positives: Nice length. Good feel, instincts and anticipation. Closes well on the ball, especially when able to read the throw and move forward. Can go up and compete for the football. Good hips. Quick feet and good speed. Fluid turn-and-go. Physical tackler.
Negatives: Overaggressive and too handsy at times. Drifts at time in coverage, allowing cushion. Needs to improve footwork and technique. Inconsistent on run support and playing off blockers.
Summary: Needs a fair amount of skill refinement, but has good upside potential.
