https://www.nfl.com/prospects/korey-cunningham?id=32462018-0002-5610-58e3-8c518a9e6387

Overview
Athletic tackle prospect with good foot quickness but a bevy of physical concerns. Cunningham's issues with body control and balance are due, in part, to a lack of functional core strength and additional weight work may not correct it to an acceptable level. Cunningham will need to become stronger and a much more proficient technician in order to hold an NFL roster spot.
Strengths
  • Good foot quickness in initial kick slides. Carries weight on inside post foot in pass slides for smoother redirects against inside moves. Has athletic ability for sudden responses and change of direction against twists. Plays with adequate lateral quickness to handle zone blocking duties
  • Fits and runs his feet to wash down move blocks. Capable in space as pull blocker or in screens
Weaknesses
  • Falls below the average mark for arm length and hands are small. Lacks necessary functional power in upper body
  • Catches defenders on his edge and is unable to press and separate from them. Edge rushers can play through his outside hand and flatten to the quarterback. Generates very little meaningful movement when asked to scrap it out at the point of attack. Body control and balance through contact are troubling. Plays with wide, grabbing hands and opens his frame to bull-rushers. Gets tossed around too easily

He certainly looks the part. 6'6" 318 and it is more muscle than fat.

I did look him up an hour ago, like all 7th round guys he needs a lot of work and probably won't even make practice squad. There were so many better players on the board too. DE Marcell Frazier, DB McFadden / Meeks / Kelly, etc. Hopefully, Keim is on phone now trying to lure some of the higher ranked guys still available here.

Cardinals offensive line coach Ray Brown called Korey Cunningham this morning and told him AZ would try to get him Saturday. For a while, Cunningham wasn't sure if it'd happen.

He doesn't take Ray Brown seriously?

Get him strength training and he could be a decent LT in a year or two.Another guy to work with and left tackles are always needed.

Maybe they see him as a guard since he is better playing in smaller spaces.
