The vast majority of the safeties in the NFL can't cover a #2 receiver one on one.

Lmao Kill. I was thinking that too, Like....well damn! When did SS start checking #2 WR let alone with NO help.

I think that happened with our safeties the past two-three years although maybe not by design...

I agree and have been beating the drum for freaks at their positions no matter team needs. Last year was OJ Howard

Freak Modern Day SS with coverage skills have always been on my list despite Kenny and still dieappointed we did not go after them.
2016 Sean Davis SS
2014 Deone Bucannon SS

next year does not look as freaky. So an early pick on SS is doubtful but not out of the question
Ronnie Harrison, SS Alabama 6011 214 4.57 #15 Jr

This the the one I am keeping a close eye on as a possible Day 3 steal
Kyzir White SS/OLB West Virginia 6025 215 4.56 #8 Sr

I am not happy with SS play and have not been for while. I miss Roman still but he does not fit the modern day SS either. He was better than anything we have now.

I beat the drum for Bucannon that draft. Would have loved Davis also.
