(13:50) CB #6 Marco Wilson (Florida) - "Smooth, good hips, but a little lack of burst breaking on the ball." (16:20) CB #5 Paulson Adebo (Stanford) - "A kamikaze missile. He will hit you." (21:20) CB #4 Aaron Robinson (UCF) - "He got put in tough positions, but the pure ability is amazing." (27:00) CB #3 Patrick Surtain II (Alabama) - "He's a Top 15 pick, but I worry about him against the elite speed receivers" (33:50) CB #2 Tyson Campbell (Georgia) - "A true shutdown elite corner" (40:00) CB #1 Caleb Farley (Virginia Tech) - "I don't know if I've ever evaluated a corner like this.

(51:30) S #5 Shawn Davis (Florida) - "He's your traditional safety, a violent tackler" (54:10) S #4 Ar'Darius Washington (TCU) - "He is THE safety at TCU. I watched him and thought 'Honey Badger'" (1:02:50) S #3 Jevon Holland (Oregon) - "He can be a free safety, strong safety, big nickel; he's versatile." (1:07:30) S #2 Elijah Molden (Washington) - "This guy is Jessie Bates. Probably the best open-field tackler in the whole draft." (1:12:20) #1 Andre Cisco (Syracuse) - "His range at free safety was the best of anybody, which at his size is saying something."
