On3 DB / Javien Toviano

As a College Recruit

Heady, pure football player who makes an impact in all three phases. Projects as a defensive back long-term with the highest upside likely being at safety. Has good size at 6-foot-.5, 180 pounds with long arms (6-foot-4 wing-span). Instinctive and physical as a defender. Diagnoses and triggers quickly as a run defender. Has very good change of direction with the ability to redirect in coverage, which he backs up with strong agility marks in the combine setting. Has performed well in covering some touted receivers at the high school level. Doubles as a running back and makes plays on special teams. Lacks the pure top-end speed of top cornerbacks. Plays faster than he tests, but will need to improve his speed to be a top corner. Physical and on-field skill set lines up best at safety at this time.

Like Andre Cisco, Javien Toviano is an instinctive defensive back at the high school level and best projects at safety long-term. Both Toviano and Cisco showed off refined cover skills while playing for top high school programs. They have similar size and dimensions. The athleticism as a high school prospect is close as well, with Cisco showing a little better top-end speed at the same stage.

Javien Toviano has pick-six in marquee game

Sam Spiegelman•National Recruiting Analyst

On3 Consensus top-35 overall player Javien Toviano was masterful in a showdown where he was tasked partly with trying to contain one of Texas’ most dynamic athletes across from in Mikal Harrison-Pilot. Toviano’s pick-six in the first half was a turning point early for Martin. After recognizing the play, the instinctive defensive back stepped into the passing lane and propelled into the paint for the touchdown. His size (6-foot-2, 185 pounds) and range gives a defense a game-breaker in the back end of the secondary. Toviano, however, has the rare ability to line up as a big corner and has pesky length and closing speed to man up on receivers one-on-one.

He later impressed with his reactive quickness and instincts in 1-on-1’s, showing the ability to anticipate and jump routes.
