Travis Hunter

evenly? or special packages on offense?
I would do it as evenly as possible. The kid could be elite at either position. Wide out snaps are always limited anyway.With Bland and Diggs you can limit some of his early down comer snaps. There is a way you can play him on both sides of the ball.
 
I watched the Colorado vs Baylor game last night, and wow. What a dude.

I doubt the pros will let him play both ways - frankly, I think Deion's the only coach crazy enough to let him do it. But in the hoopla about him being a legitimate two-way star, I think we lose sight of what a special CB prospect this guy is. Patrick Peterson-esque.

Seriously, where do you even poke holes in Hunter's game. 6'1" 185, rocket fast, top-flight ball skills, great tackler in space, and he's just a dawg physically. He's the kind of CB you could match up on anybody.

I didn't see the same type of polish to him as WR. He doesn't really separate with great route running or nuance, most of his plays just come by being more explosive than the guy covering him. With his pure athleticism and ball skills, I think he could start in the NFL yesterday as a field-stretcher #2, but I'm not sure if he is a high volume #1. And playing offense negates the hands-on physical part of his game, which literally won the game for Colorado last night when he put his hat in there.

Anyway, good WR prospect, unbelievable CB prospect, deserves the Heisman, and there's no way he doesn't go top 5. The Cowboys will have to have a lot more Saints game in them to draft this stud.
He will play both.

He reminds me of Champ Bailey who also played both at Georgia. Think he will become an elite corner, but not play WR on the next level.

I think if they punch enough hole in Wards game, Hunter could be the #1 overall pick. Id bet in him being #2 overall pick
 
Hunter is exactly the type of player Jerry drools over.
He should drool over him. As a prospect he is miles ahead of everyone else in this class. If your a smart team and Hunter is there, you take him and figure out rest later

I think Hunter is a stud…but I don’t think he’s miles above others. If the injury checks out for Will Johnson I’d put him right up there with Hunter as a potential for CB1.

Johnson is good, but to me Hunter is in a tier all to himself. Its hard to compare him to recent guys as opposed to guys like Charles Woodson or Patrick Peterson

Johnson is bigger, longer and has incredibly foot speed for someone his size. I also put a lot of stock in top prospects showing up against top prospects and he played really well against MHJ and Odunze.

I looooove Hunter…but what elite WR has he locked down?
 
Whatever team drafts him, should use him the same way we used Prime in Dallas (minus the punt returns)

Pencil him in as an outside corner and let him play maybe 40% of the plays at WR on offense
