Why Tyrann Mathieu is going to be a Pro Bowler?

Since he didn't find himself in the top 50 prospects, because this is a deep draft, I had to give him his own little feature on the site. 

You look at him and you see he is a playmaker. I can imagine when he comes into the league he will be disrespected by the team that drafts him and puts him at a gunner. The Patrick Peterson's of the world don't have that disrespect thrown their way and the funny thing is I think that is the best way to motivate this guy. You get in his head and he plays angry out there and becomes the best damn gunner out there. He's flying around and making plays and then you start letting him return kicks and punts. He succeeds there and then you let him see some time at nickelback and he makes plays blitzing the QB or covering the slot receiver. With Tyrann, you have to give him a little and make him earn his way. He is already pissed off and hungry as is but you want to treat him like a kid getting the keys to the car for the first time. You aren't going to let him drive to Disney World quite yet, you are going to get his feet wet first, and I think that's the move with Tyrann.

I've read people calling him the next Pacman Jones and luckily he won't be making that much money so that won't be a problem. He is more in the mold of Janoris Jenkins, a guy that goes 2nd round and has a fantastic year. I do believe he is still immature and not quite there yet, but he is worth the so called risk. I view him as one of the safest investments this year. Yes. He fan flat out play and the funny thing about off the field concerns is if a guy can play, off the field concerns seem to disappear. Funny how that works.

Breaking down Tyrann you can see his playmaking ability is clearly evident. He has a knack for the ball and I've never seen a guy make so many damn plays. Not only does he constantly rip the ball out of the ball carriers hands, he tips passes, intercepts them, returns punts/kicks, and has a knack for the end-zone. He's nowhere near the athlete of Deion or Patrick Peterson but he is still a hell of an athlete. He doesn't have their speed but you don't have to have elite speed to be a hell of an athlete. I would argue track guys aren't even that athletic most of the time, they are just fast, and there is a difference. Could a track guy go from playing basketball to golf to baseball? No I doubt he could do any of those sports. The plays Mathieu makes are that of an athlete. When he returns punts, he doesn't have the straight line speed to outrun everybody but he has the ability to make cuts almost like that of Tavon Austin and he possesses incredible vision. He sticks his nose in there and doesn't shy away from contact. I think wherever you put this guy he will succeed because that's what great players do. Tyrann Mathieu is a great player. A future Pro Bowler.
