Yeah, there's already been some griping that he supposedly can't catch, but I'm assuming that people are looking at his lack of INT's, and haven't actually seen him try to catch a football. Who knows how many chances he had? I don't watch Texas football, so I sure don't know. I do know that from what film I've seen, and what I've read, there wasn't a better safety out there.

Yeah agreed, People saying he can't catch should watch this video, the interception he makes at 3:29 is a catch a wide receiver would be proud of to be honest

+1. Saw him twice this year down in Austin and quite frankly I like his center field awareness & tackling ability. He wasn't a intercepting 'machine' but he had the knack for breaking up the deep ball. IMO this was a SOLID pick for our secondary and I'm glad he is on our team.

After having seen all of his interceptions on youtube, I will say this: Those are balls that Roman Harper definitely would have DROPPED.
