Logan Ryan: Video Highlights for Former Rutgers CB
Logan Ryan will forgo his senior year at Rutgers and make himself eligible for the 2013 NFL draft.
The ultra-physical cornerback has been an All-Big East selection the last two seasons. In 2012, Ryan made 94 tackles and defended 21 passes, of which he intercepted four.
The 5'11", 190-pound defensive back is a solid tackler and has strong cover skills. The only knock on Ryan is his speed (4.53 40-yard dash) and because of this, he is projected to be selected in the third round.
Here are some of Logan Ryan's top plays.
Interception vs. Cincinnati, 2012
1 of 5In the middle of the second quarter, with the Bearcats driving and in Rutgers territory, Logan Ryan intercepted a long pass at the Rutgers 3-yard line. Rutgers won the game 10-3, making this one of the matchup's key plays.
Ryan exhibited good timing and physicality, leaping in the air and stealing the ball from the receiver.
Interception vs. Iowa State, 2011

Interception vs. Pittsburgh, 2011

Interception vs. Connecticut, 2012
4 of 5Early in the first quarter, Logan Ryan intercepted a pass from Connecticut's Chandler Whitmer at the UConn 45-yard line. Rutgers scored a field goal on the ensuing drive on their way to a 19-3 win.
Ryan displayed good anticipation as he read Whitmer's eyes and created a turnover.
Interception vs. Arkansas, 2012
5 of 5With Rutgers leading 28-13, near the end of the third quarter, Logan Ryan intercepted a pass from Arkansas' Tyler Wilson in the end zone. It was a huge play that helped the Scarlet Knights defeat the Razorbacks 35-26.
Ryan exhibited good coverage, anticipation and receiving skills as he stayed in-bounds and prevented a touchdown.
This was actually Ryan's second end-zone interception of the game as the first was ruled interference. Regardless, Ryan showed good defensive awareness and strong, physical play.
