Washington Football Team signed third-round CB Benjamin St-Juste to a four-year, $5.1 million contract.
The deal includes a $1.069 million signing bonus. St-Juste (6'3/202) sports a long, lean frame that allows him to corral receivers at the line of scrimmage, as well as bring skill players down when tackling. St-Juste also timed a stellar 6.63-second three-cone drill at his Pro Day, an absurd number for a player his size. That flexibility does not always show up on film, though, in part because St-Juste’s eye discipline can run hot and cold, leaving him slow to transition in some instances. The Football Team didn’t have a pressing need a corner but extra depth at one of the most important positions never hurts. The signing of former Bengals corner William Jackson should keep St-Juste as a rotational player in his rookie season.
