Kyle Hamilton? The Notre Dame Safety? Why would we draft a Safety? We paid a nice chunk of change to Rayshawn Jenkins for the next 4 years and Andre Cisco has looked very, very good so far. I think we might be set at the position for a while. 

I scouted a few OT's on Saturday and God, it was depressing. I did kinda like Penn State's Rasheed Walker and Alabama's Evan Neal, but I also watched Zion Nelson of Miami, Charles Cross of Mississippi State and Thayer Munford of Ohio State. Those guys were terrible! I know Miami was playing Alabama, but geez! Nelson was a mess and Cross absolutely whiffed on several blocks against La. Tech in a game he should've dominated. I've never been impressed with Munford. He just looks so slow footed and unless he actually locks onto his opponents, he's relatively easy to beat. How these three got named as potential first round picks in so many mock drafts is beyond me. 

I believe Neal will be a top 5 pick, but I also know that Alabama OT's all tend to "peter out" in the NFL. Especially the LT prospects. I'd be very wary of that. They all seem to be heavy footed, maulers that have a lot of problems with faster, DE's who display more than one move. It's like back in the day when Texas A&M was constantly turning out finesse OT's with good footwork, but they were beaten like drums by stronger bull rushers who would push them backwards like a blocking sled. Think Luke Joeckel. I swear, it's like those Aggie OT's never saw a weight room before. There are a few more OT's for me to watch, but I have a feeling this is gonna be a very thin class. I really don't like what I'm seeing so far.
