Here is some Matt Elam talk for you even though I dont think he'll be a Cowboy.

Matt Elam - DB - Gators
NFL Films' Greg Cosell writes that NFL teams will view Florida S Matt Elam as a Bob Sanders type.
"In the base defense, he played both single high and 2-deep. It was not hard to like Elam. He was active, aggressive and competitive," Cosell wrote. "He covered, and he hit, with striking ability and force. He flashed explosive traits as an athletic and physical defender with multiple and interchangeable attributes to play effectively both in the box, and deep. The one concern, and it returns to what I discussed earlier, is man coverage versus tight ends. That’s where his lack of height comes into play. Elam is one of several players whose draft position I am anxious to see. Will teams see him as a Bob Sanders type player whose overall impact outweighs his potential coverage limitation? My guess is, yes."

Florida S Matt Elam will visit the Titans on Wednesday.
We doubt Elam is considered a selection at No. 10. Many love Elam's physical nature as an in the box safety. However, we question his play to play consistency and think he might struggle to cover larger targets downfield. Apr 9 - 5:04 PM

Love Elam and what he could do in a Kiffin defense.

Agreed. Always loved the guy. It was hard to watch Florida games and miss him. Kid was constantly flying around everywhere making plays.

Probably because he will be drafted between 25-40. Vaccaro is slated to go around where we pick.
