Bradley Roby (born c. 1992) is an American football cornerback for the Ohio State Buckeyes.
High school career
A native of Suwanee, Georgia, Roby attended Peachtree Ridge High School, where he was an All-State receiver and defensive back. Regarded as a three-star recruit by Rivals.com, he was not listed among the top receivers or defensive backs of his class.[1]
While being pre-season All American and a sure fire top pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, Roby has been exposed this season as a poor tackler, a lazy defender, and too reliant on his speed to make plays. Vs Cal on Sept 14, 2014 Roby gave up a deep touchdown with a half hearted attempt at pushing the WR out of bounds, and was badly beaten on a fade route later in the game. On September 28, 2013 Roby was abused by Wisconsin WR Jared Abbrederis for over 207yards receiving. Roby has likely cost himself 3 or 4 million dollars, and dropped out of the 1st Round for sure.
