Samford senior DB Jaquiski Tartt "is one of the best safeties in the country," according to an AFC scout.
"He was a sleeper candidate at the beginning of the season, but the buzz is building and now every team is on him," the scout said. "He's big, physical and very explosive." NFL.com's draft team of Daniel Jeremiah, Bucky Brooks and Charles Davis followed up the effusive praise with a bold prediction: "The highest a Samford player has ever been drafted is the fifth round (SS Corey White by the Saints in 2012), but Tartt should easily top that. He has good size (6-foot-1, 218 pounds) and runs well (he has been clocked as fast as 4.46 in the 40). He is extremely active in run support; he had 98 tackles last season for the Bulldogs and is second on the team with 22 this season (half of those came in a season-opening loss to TCU, the only FBS team on Samford's schedule)." The 6-foot-1, 218-pound Tartt, a Mobile, Ala. native, played only one season of high school football. He wanted to be a basketball player before that. Oct 8 - 9:58 PM
