Reid - smart, fast, and physical
Loston/T-Raw - athletic playmakers, who are extremely physical
Claiborne - long arms and very athletic
Simon - Long and lean build, Arms like a Mr. Gadget
Taylor - looked good against Oregon, solid career for LSU, but has some bad open field tackling habits that scares the piss out of me.

Tharold has proven his eorth. Played as a true frosh starting as a sophomore. Considering our dbs get better every year under cooper i dont see how hes sny different.

The only real answer right now is Claiborne

Claiborne is projected to be one of the first if not the first DB taken in next year's draft, so I'll go with him, followed by Reid.

cooper churns out nfl db's like ihop pancakes

As much as I think Mathieu is a great college player the NFL is a different game. Cover cornerbacks are at a premium. Safeties are always less valued than comparable cornerbacks. Claiborne is the best cover cornerback. I thinks Simon's size is a liability in the NFL. He may even end up moving to safety in the NFL depending on how he tests out at the combine.

How is the tall one a liability?
Just curious. I think sometimes though that he might make a hell of a reciever.

You rarely see a 6'3" corner with the change of direction to be a corner in the NFL.

I think the point is due to his height, we're not sure he can be a shut down corner in the NFL. I'm certainly not saying he can't, I just personally have not seen the body of work to be convinced of it. But he's no doubt going to be a great college corner.

I'm sure he would have been great. Kinda wish we had a lean body like him over there. We seem to have a lot of 6 footers at WR.

Simon in a Landslide u tards, he has stopped all receivers no matter. how dumb are u he is 6'3" and has stopped all WR's he has faced.

I believe Claiborne is already to be a top ten pick in next years draft soo.....

My favorite is TM7 but his size may work against him in the draft and typecast him as a nickle in the NFL.

Simon--6'3" with good ball skills. Scouts will drool.
Reid--Enforcer, physical but under control.

Mathieu--a "football player". Size will make him be drafted later than he should be.
Taylor--underrated, solid player. Middle rounder.
Loston--disappointment thus far. Plays out of control.
This looks right to me.

If Simon has a good combine, plays to his potential here and shows he has smooth hips, he will be the highest drafted DB in this secondary. Because I'm willing to bet right now, he has at least a 40 inch vertical to go with his huge wingspan.
Since we haven't seen enough of him yet, Claiborne. TM7 won't be a first round pick unless he grows a bit. I think them saying he is 5'9 is being generous in cleats.

I think Reid will have best NFL looks by his senior year. Then Simon. Mo, TM, Taylor, Loston
