He's a football player. There's absolutely no doubt that he is a football player. And I hope it's clear what I mean. Obviously he plays the game of football. But I mean something more than that when I emphasize that he is a football player.
Sounds nice but it’s hard to ignore lol white corners that play well get moved to safety. Corners get paid more than safeties so those guys are losing money
@@PastorTrue93 I just don't see things that others see when it comes to sports. Sports is a beautiful thing because it's results based. Skin color is a thing that has no bearing whatsoever. Have a great day 👌
Long term, I think Dejean can be a CB, but for this upcoming season, if you wanna field the best secondary that you can I'd play him at Free Saftey. Slay and Mitchell on the outside, Bradberry playing slot, and CJ being your box saftey, that is a massive upgrade over what they had last season.
I think he would best suited as a nickel imo eagles still have Chauncey, Reed and Sydney Brown for safety position and they could add one of the older vets for more depth/rotation in Simmons, Diggs or Eddie Jackson
Think I like Coop at Nickel. Bradberry doesn’t fit on the team anymore. He’ll probably be a post-June cut. CJ and Blank hold down the starting safety spots
@@jasonr_2017 exactly and brown will most likely rotate with Reed and both share about a 60/40 or 50/50 ratio of snaps and DeJean with his size, athleticism and coverage ability and he’s a great tackler by the way I think he should play nickel imo
That's true having quicks and speed and then having that second level of speed to play on the outside is true i believe this kid can play because he has that great point ..🦅🦅🦅
There's always been these unspoken underlying biases. Whether it was the black QB, or center or punter. And then there's white corner backs or running backs as well
Question - What type of impact will he have on the eagles defense? Undisputed - let me tell you the history of white corners and why we don't have any.
He’s a baller. Should’ve been a first round pick. I think he got drafted in the 2nd because the entire league emphasized offense. 23 teams went offense in the first round.
Who gives a flying flip if he’s white blue pink yellow orange if he can cover, and if he can play, then he can play regardless of what color or race you are. Yeah the majority of corners are black or light skin Latino, but that doesn’t mean a white person can’t be a corner and have a good career in the NFL. I pray that this man has a great career.
There's a HUGE difference between "the majority" and, "Everybody except for one person" 😂😂.. What you talking about guy?? The last white CB was Jason Seahorn
We just upgraded Malcolm Jenkins. He'll cover Tight ends like a glove. He runs to points in the route because he's an ex QB . We have two white safeties.. Reid Blankenship is a monster. Go Birdz
I dont watch college ball but when I look at his highlights there's a lot of safety type highlights s. For Quinyon Mitchell there was a lot of Zone Corner type highlights and a few corner highlights.
As a French person, I hope they start pronouncing his name right. This is how it needs to be pronounced: Take the way you pronounce the ‘j’ in Bijan Robinson’s fist name, and apply that to the name DeSean. Replace the ‘sh’ sound with the Bijan ‘J’-> DeJean.
DeJean will be at safety mostly. At corner he will be targeted. If he ran a 4.33 he would stick at corner. Mitchell runs a 4.33. Corner can be ballers, but Cooper's speed may not be elite enough. Not saying he can't play some corner, and sure he can play some zone.
That was Basketball. And white players have been BALLING in recent years.. Jokic getting MVPs and winning chips. Luka been ballin.. A white guy won the last 2 slam dunk contests, and a white chick is breaking all the female records.. That comparison from the 70s-80s don't work no more
Dam can we not have race put in everything ? talent is talent no color should matter in this day and time .. if the dude can ball he can ball . Don’t get me wrong I know we had hurdles in the old days which was a travesty think of all the talented players we missed in the old days like in baseball Josh Gibson Satchel Page look at the records those two men would have broke if there wasn’t a color barrier .. judge athletes by talent not race
The African American scholar from Chicago who wrote an autobiography of his Jewish mother wrote an explanation of the issue. The racial diversity of African is wider than in the white race. He explained that there were both more great Black athletics and also more bad Black athletics than in the white race. This was in an essay in the New York Review of Books.
Appreciate sherm and Key for being REAL, even if a little self censored. Played on a team that sent multiple guys to the league as the only white guy…..BUT if you put 2 white “greats” on and they started segment laughing about black qb’s. Heads would roll and the internet would explode. Not offended by a single word but the double standard here needs to be called out
that guy definitely has ALL the tools and i hope fangio plays him outside, sherman is right, they’re gonna test him a lot more than your average rookie corner but cooper dejean is a special football player. i honestly think he will succeed based on the things i’ve seen.
That's really not what it is though.. Its just a typecast kind of thing. Just like its been for Blk QBs for YEARS!.. They tried to turn Lamar Jackson to a RB, and they tried to do the same thing to 90% of the Blk QBs before him. Either turn them into RBs or WRs.. They do the same thing with white defenders, except make them switch to Safety, or make them gain weight and be a OLB. Even a WR sometimes, just like Keyshawn was sayin. Its not excuses at all
I’m an Iowa fan. Cooper is crazy athletic, he is physical and he has intangibles. Was he racially profiled? Yes, but he will prove them wrong in the nfl
People acting like Riley Moss doesnt exist he was a white CB taken by my broncos last year but no cap I said hes going to be our SS imediatly fun fact He was Cooper Dejeans team mate at Iowa
Dont say its odd. Yt people have 2 positions left, qb and OL. And theres always poc that keep saying 'we taking over that too', so dont act like it wasnt the goal of poc to eliminate all yt players
It's his hips. He has the speed all day and I definitely understand it but it's not always about speed. There are more factors into playing the corner position. His only weakness is his hips. If you go back and watch his videos, his hip work is not that good. He is going to get torched by a top tier wide out in the league with that lack of hip work.
Funny how when it's a black QB or black coach they say it's racist but when it's a white cornerback its cause they ain't good enough 😂. How bout teams pick based on talent and not skin color. Dejean is gunna be a stud!!!
It’s only a topic of conversation for liberal media.. not everything is a race conversation but yet they somehow find a way to shove it down our throats like we should be thinking about it all the time.
The cognitive dissonance, inconsistencies, and blatant hypocrisy is so bizarre that its perfectly acceptable to question physical traits (size/speed/quickness/quick twitch/etc) in terms of whether representative groups are qualified to be the optimal selection to play a position.. but questioning someone’s mental traits(IQ/football IQ/ability to read coverage/etc) in terms of whether a representative group are qualified to be the optimal selection to play a position is viewed to be outrageous and racist. It’s literally the exact same thing. Whether people want to admit that or not.
He’s not fast enough to play outside in the NFL on a regular basis nothing to do with race play him where he excels at he’s coming in as a DB multiple positions no way he can cover AJ or Slim Reaper but it’s not a knock on him most guys can’t 🦅
Sherm talking alittle to loose about stereotypes there.. must be the privilege of getting in trouble with the law again.. and still not losing your job.
Don't care what color DeJean is......that man can run.
Not really. I can see C.D Lamb run right past him
@@sirchi8731lamb does that to almost every corner, doesn’t mean dejean can’t be a good corner

He won't be a great corner due to speed but he can be a great safety with his toughness.
I'm white and I don't give a shit about having a white cornerback in the league. I care about players getting opportunities based off of play ALONE.

You know they had to play the race card for ratings smh
Well that is an obvious topic...a white corner.
Oh stop it. It's true what happens on the field.

Cooper DeJawn. Absolute baller 🏈
lol the energy is funny😂😂😂 the smile on Richard and Keyshawn face priceless
Now that he's in philly, he needs to change the spelling of his last name to Dejawn.
ayo chill 😂😂
Change his first name to just “Coop”
If white guys can play running back they can play cornerback.
Anybody can play any position. Just gotta be undeniable.

Lmao dawg when he said the white corner getting targeting I couldn’t help it man
Cooper is going to be an Eagle legend

How is this a topic? This is why everyone has there favorite youtuber and you espn guys are going extinc. Cant wait till it happens
Go somewhere else!!
Now that they talking about it we need to do a study on it
Ok. Remember, Larry Bird saw it as an insult for white players to guard him.

It’s sad
But black is powerful and we are more athletic, not seeing white people are not , just being honest
Eagles draft board had them rated 1 and 2. Dejean is going to play corner, safety, nickel, and probably return punts.
he’s gonna be a safety
Revis catching strays 😭

What white safety could play cb? He can be the next Jenkins or honey badger came in nfl as a cb but switched to a playmaking safety

I’m an Iowa fan. Cooper is crazy athletic, he is physical and he has intangibles. Was he racially profiled? Yes, but he will prove them wrong in the nfl
Keyshawn literally just named probably the only 2 white guys im the nfl that could maybe hold there own at CB
We have affirmative action in the quarterback role where black QB's are just forced, so why not do it for Cornerback
Wait Skip’s still on TV? I thought he retired.
Is Foxforth's contract coming up?
