I think he would make a great box SS IMO. He plays a lot bigger than his size. He can make tackles in run support and be very effective in zone blitz's. The problem I would worry about is his durability at that position.

ehh, i don't know if he can make consistent tackles as a safety in the box against NFL running backs. Not to mention all the pulling guards waiting to maul him.

I agree. IF he makes it will be at corner. He is far from a sure thing though.
He's a cb for sure depends on that 40 time, but with his troubles, I'd not touch him at 31, just to much crap for a first rounder. Besides Jim and Trent aren't known to draft guys with off the field troubles...
If we get 3rd round compensatory pick as expected, that'd be an ideal spot for a guy like The Honey Badger!

I am just given an example but yea I think Nickle corner would be the ideal spot for him but I would not rule out him at safety. Trenton Robinson is just 10 pounds heavier than him playing safety. Earl Thomas is just a little bit bigger than him playing safety. I think guys like Whitner are great against running teams but he would of been better served in the 90's. Only time will tell if Tyrann will amount to anything in the NFL.

This, he would be a demon there with his knack for causing fumbles and his return ability

Agreed. And he may be playing with a chip on his shoulder in the NFL so that may intensify his playmaking.
15 picks. I think it's safe to say Alex is gone. I think we have too many picks not to take a gamble on him. I think he has too much talent, in a position we are in need of. I'll take in the 3rd
Imagine him in the slot with Tarell Brown and Chris Culliver on the outside! Safety's Eric Reid and Donte Whitner.....

Dashon Goldson will walk IMO
