Scouting Report: Strengths
- DuBose runs precise routes, showing an innate feel for setting up defensive backs to create separation.
- An elusive and creative runner in space, DuBose has the lateral agility and stop-start ability to make tacklers swing and miss. He shows good hands and coordination as an underneath catch-and-run target.
- He’s extremely dangerous in the open field, showing the vision and creativity to run through entire defenses.
- Has a knack for getting open and is a quarterback's best friend - passers just need to toss the ball in his area and he'll come down with it.
- Good quickness off the line. Has size and quickness to get off NFL press.
- DuBose also has value as a catch-and-run threat, running hard and consistently picking up yards after the catch.
- Does not have exceptional straight-line speed but takes advantage of open seams when his quarterback is on target.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- DuBose isn’t going to overwhelm opposing defensive backs with speed and athleticism.
- Physically, DuBose profiles as a guy who should have success facing the quarterback, but he struggles to gear down and make the necessary sharp cuts to create separation underneath.
- He’ll have to develop a better feel for sitting down against zone coverage.
