That was a concern. Thats why he lasted as long as he did in the first round. A true CB with his measurables would have gone much sooner. The bottom line he was drafted on potential as much as anything and he hasn't made the transition.
"Andre Woolfolk is a raw corner who needs a lot of technique work, but he has a ton of tools to work with. Combines excellent size with superb athleticism. Quick and agile. Somewhat inconsistent in coverage, but flashes great ability. Needs to add strength and become more aggressive in run defense." http://www.bigblueinteractive.com/draft/drpros03.htm
"Andre Woolfolk CB, Oklahoma, Woolfolk is very raw, but he has tremendous potential. May be worth the risk for a team with two first-round picks."

The Steelers were seriously considering Woolfolk in the first round at #27 before they traded up to get Polamalu. Good move for them.
