Profile
Summary:A three-year standout at Florida, Hargreaves' game seems well-suited for the transition to the professional level. He combines quick instincts with aggression and a nose for the ball. A versatile corner, Hargreaves has excelled various types of coverage.
Although Hargreaves is under 6feet tall, he isn't afraid to get his nose dirty. NFL.com's Lance Zierlein wrote that Hargreaves is "unwilling to stay blocked and doesn't hesitate for one moment in run support and against wide receiver screens. Chest-up tackler who runs through his target."
Stacking up: NFL Media analyst Mike Mayock ranked Hargreaves as his top cornerback, moving him up from the second spot in Mayock's initial rankings. Fellow analyst Bucky Brooks has Hargreaves as the No. 2 prospect at the position behind Florida State cornerback Jalen Ramsey. Daniel Jeremiah ranked Hargreaves at No. 9 in his list of the top 50 prospects in the 2016 NFL Draft.
In his blood: Hargreaves took after the athletic genes of his father, Vernon II, who was a four-year letter winner at the University of Connecticut in the early 80s. Vernon II was named to UConn's 100th anniversary team and has coached linebackers and special teams for multiple schools (USF, Houston, Arkansas).
