Trent McDuffie primarily lined up as an outside corner for the Washington Huskies. He has a smaller frame and will struggle with more physical receivers on the next level. His below average arm length and ball skills hold him back as well. However, he did show great aptitude in zone and especially man coverage. He possesses good athleticism for the position. He has smooth hips and good speed and acceleration, but can struggle with recovery against more polished route runners. McDuffie is a very smart player. He plays with his head on a swivel and is quick to read and react to plays. He maintains disciplined eyes in zone and is a patient and controlled corner. He does well timing his tackles in the run game and when he needs to flip his hips and turn with his assignment. In the run game, McDuffie showed willingness to tackle and decent form, however he could stand to be more aggressive and physical. Overall McDuffie can slot into an NFL lineup immediately if he can pick up the play book. With some added time on his aggressiveness, weight and ball skills he can grow to be a number one corner.
