1. Tyler Nubin, Minnesota
— The best of an average class, Nubin is a great athlete.
Minnesota SAF Tyler Nubin’s ball skills are outstanding. He has ball hawk written all over him. SAF1 for me! pic.twitter.com/gOfKXwSVcE

4. Tykee Smith, Georgia
— I have him higher than most, kid is a worker and leader.
Stat of the day:
Tykee Smith’s 7.5 tackles for loss this season are the most by a UGA defensive back since Brandon Boykin in 2011.
Javon Bullard recorded the 2nd most since Boykin when he had 7 TFLs in ‘22.
Georgia’s secondary is built different.

5. Kam Kinchens, Miami
— So talented and can flash but can also get lost.
6. Calen Bullock, USC
— Maybe the most naturally talented but inconsistent.

7. Cole Bishop, Utah
— Smarts and toughness stand out.
8. Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, Texas Tech
— Sleeper value pick here who can do it all.
DB Dadrion Taylor-Demerson continued to have a tremendous draft process.
1️⃣Crushed his senior season at @TexasTechFB
2️⃣Dominated during the @ShrineBowl week on field and in interviews
3️⃣Put on a show at the NFL Combine (led by his 4.42 forty)

9. Beau Brade, Maryland
— Very physical kid with a lot of power.
10. Malik Mustapha, Wake Forest
— Smart, always seems to be in the right position.
One player that I can't wait to see this week is Wake Forest S Malik Mustapha.
Highly energized mover who plays with impressive physicality. Best projects as a strong safety but there's enough range and fluidity in the deep portion of the field to provide versatility.
