Gareon Conley was the lone starter after Tyvis Powell, Von Bell and Eli Apple left for their NFL dreams two seasons ago. Â He has started since they left, and has become a reliable player for the Buckeyes, often shutting down a half of the field with his play. Â
Conley is listed as 6’0″, 196 lbs., and he is projected to be drafted late in the first round. Â He ran a 4.44 at the combine and displayed his athleticism during drills. Â
Conley has drawn comparisons to current Denver Bronco Aqib Talib from NFL Scouts. Â He has the ability to use his talents at the next level with the blend of size and speed that he possesses. Â He is durable and he can be used right away by NFL teams. Â
Unlike other Buckeye Defensive Backs, Conley has more than a season of starting experience, and that is the intriguing part when considering the talent that the Buckeyes send out on a yearly basis over the past few years.
