Baylor’s long, fast, and physical lockdown-style corner
In the 2009 Baylor season, Antareis Bryan stood out as a tall, athletic cornerback nicknamed “The Locksmith,” with verified top-end traits like a 4.34-second 40-yard dash and a 42-inch vertical that hint at real shutdown upside[3]. Baylor’s notes also describe him as the Bears’ second-tallest defensive back and a player who battled hamstring and foot injuries, which matters because his fit depends on both coverage length and health[3][8]. For a team, he projects as a competitive, rangy DB who can match bigger receivers and bring some swagger to the secondary[3].
