Young Arkansas DB with a live frame, speed, and early-game upside
Taijh Overton is a freshman Arkansas defensive back who has already seen game action, logging one tackle in limited 2025 duty, which makes him more of an upside evaluation than a finished product.[2][1] The appeal is his frame and movement profile — listed at 6-2 and around 179-188 pounds, with EA ratings that point to above-average speed, acceleration, jumping, and usable zone coverage for a young defensive back.[4][3] He looks like a developmental piece who can bring length, range, and special-teams value, but he is still early in his career and needs reps to prove he can consistently hold up against SEC speed and physicality.[2][4]
