De'Anthony Thomas not Snoop Dogg's only NFL rookie - Chase Goodbread

How Does He Fit?: Jason Verrett, San Diego Chargers - Matthew Shovlin
I've already alluded to his biggest problem - size. The NFL likes tall, long cornerbacks, but Verrett is well under 6-feet and has arms at about 30.5 inches in length.

His tough, scrappy style of play can often allow him to make up for that, but the ceiling is only so high given his physical limitations.
