Paul Mencke Jr. brings size, coverage instincts, and upside in Washington’s secondary
Paul Mencke Jr. is a 6-foot-2 defensive back with a reputation for advanced coverage skills, strong instincts, and the ability to stay attached to quality receivers in one-on-one settings. Recruiting reports described him as one of the best cover safeties in his class, and he earned DB MVP honors at an Under Armour camp, which points to real ball-tracking and competitiveness. For a team, he looks like a fit if you value length, range, and a player who can be trusted in coverage rather than just as a downhill tackler.
