Trey Amos NFL Draft 2025 Scouting Report for Washington Commanders CB

The Washington Commanders selected Ole Miss CB Trey Amos with the No. 61 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft.

Amos is a physical and fluid cornerback prospect with the size, strength, and athleticism to compete at the next level. Known for his strong press technique and ability to match up against bigger receivers, Amos has the skill set to develop into a versatile corner capable of playing both man and zone coverage schemes.

Amos excels in press coverage, using his quick feet, lateral movement, and strong hand usage to control receivers at the line. His ball skills are notable, allowing him to high-point the ball and play through the catch point. However, his aggressiveness can cause him to struggle with eye discipline, leading to separation or loss of leverage. His transitions, particularly from a backpedal, can be inconsistent, which hampers his ability to recover downfield.

Trey Amos projects as a mid-round pick with the potential to develop into a versatile starter. His combination of size, athleticism, and ball skills makes him an intriguing prospect. However, improving his tackling consistency and refining his technique in deep coverage will be key to his success.
