I'd draft Sydquan Thompson in the 3rd or 4th and move him to safety

I see this guy as a poor man's Bob Sanders but with better coverage skills.

He obviously is mini-sized and has to gain some more weight. But this guy has elite CB skills (but with poor top speed to be on the outside), and a kamikaze way of playing the game. He has great instincts and isn't afraid to take on a FB and stick his nose in the box.

I see him as a FS/SS tweener. Hey, the Bills had success with moving Byrd, an undersized CB, to safety last year too. I belive this guy has an Earl Thomas skill set and can be a player for us.

4.7, no thanks

Love Syd Quan Thompson. I don't care about the 40...The kid can play football...Never thought about him at S; I think I'd keep him at Cb because of his size.

Although, on the other hand, we've got Ball at S and I'm pretty sure he was even smaller than Thompson. So it might not be such a bad idea...

Tightened up. There's no way he really runs a 4.7 and was able to be so successful in shutting down the opposition actually running a 4.7

Ball's 6'1 190.

did he have his pro day yet?

Yes. Cal had their pro day already and that's where he tightened up but still finished the workout.

If you're looking for a Bob Sanders type in this draft.

TJ Ward is your dude.

When he came out he was something like 170 lbs. The knock on his was size

lol he seems to even have the Bob Sanders', getting injured part down too.

Me likey. The injury thing is concerning but that's obviously why he'd be a steal. Where do mocks have him going?
