What is wrong with Ramsey? Jaylon Smith is the guy with bad knees.


Buckner and Ramsey are top 5 picks.

Buckner and Ramsey are top 5 picks.
he has shown great versatility throughout his career, splitting time between cornerback and safety his freshman year, playing the Spur spot in 2014, before moving back to corner as a junior.

Jalen Ramsey Draft Profile

Jaylon Ramsey has never played the same position at FSU. So despite being a 3 year starter at FSU he is still raw for the most part.

This is why I would not be surprised to see him slip a bit in the draft. When was the last time you saw a safety drafted this high? That is exactly what this kid is. Can he become a CB at the next level that justifies top 10? not sold on that skill set just yet. Right now he is a starting SS with exceptional coverage and tackling skills in year one. He can be your back up FS with out loosing much sleep over really. Give him a year or two and he is you starting FS.

At this point he is another Deone Bucannon. At 22 Deon was a steal. Top 5? top 10 maybe. Top 15 without a doubt.

Jaylon Ramsey has perennial pro bowl FS written all over him. Byrd's replacements.
