Pros

  • Elite athletic profile to go along great size for the position.​

  • Fluid movement in coverage keeps him close to receiver in man coverage.

  • Footwork is technically sound in man coverage. 
 
  • Can mirror receiver movements effectively on short and intermediate routes when diagnosed properly.
 
  • Extremely explosive when going down field on deep routes to stay with receiver.
 
  • Aggressiveness at the start of routes in press coverage sets receiver up for failure quite often.
 
  • Good power in his frame to handle bigger receivers on the outside.
 
  • Aggressiveness on boundary line does shrink landing zone for receiver.
 
  • Good at sticking hand into receivers catch point to bat away passes.
 
  • Vertical capabilities make him a potential nightmare for receivers on jump balls.
 
  • Rarely, if ever, beaten by speed on deep routes due to athletic profile.
 
  • Very capable tackler both inline as well as in the open field.
 
  • Wraps up ball carrier and brings them down with authority.

Cons

  • 2022 was his only full starting season.

  • Lengthy injury history
 
  • Questionable ball skills for the position due lack of awareness and instincts when ball is in the air.
 
  • Bad hands for the position that often drop potential interceptions.
 
  • Not enough ball production in career.
 
  • Technique is discarded in coverage if beaten early in route.
 
  • Late to diagnose routes early in man coverage.
 
  • Overly aggressive at the top of route in press-man could lead to flags in his direction.
 
  • Timing when jumping routes in zone coverage needs considerable work.
 
  • Bites hard on double moves in zone coverage
  
  • Very few blitz attempts in college to show versatility at the position.
 
  • Potentially scheme dependent with more of his success coming from press-man.

Overview

Deonte Banks has all the tools to be a reliable press-man corner in the NFL with his tremendous athletic profile and good size for the position to go along with solid technique. He's been one of the faster risers in the NFL draft because of his skill set and potential to handle almost any task given to him but his lackluster ball production combine with his worrisome recovery tendencies that can cause more harm than good may cause some teams to think twice about making him a Day 1 selection. He'll need to work on his hands and ball skills early in his career and develop better recognition of routes and plays but a team looking for a bit of project with massive risk-reward potential should have him high on their Day 2 board.
