If we pass early on a William Moore, who fits the size mold of many on this board, there is a heck of a football player who doesn't have the size, but fits the player mold of Pats prospects. Emanuel Cook of South Carolina is quite a player. Rated the #1 junior SS prospect with a round 1-2 projection. Decent in coverage and very strong in the box/short zone due to his tackling ability. Reportedly, a very instinctive player. Nicknamed the Hit Man. Listed at only 5'10" 205, but I've seen him profiled at 215. He's the real deal as a hitter, otherwise his size would be a concern. But when you look back, BB spent a third rounder on SS Gus Scott, he of the 5-10 204 stature.
As far as I know, the Pats still draft football players. So when focusing on the 220+ Safeties, consider the lightweights who can play the position as well.
Bump, good info.
