On the occasion that Kyle Hamilton drops

Is he completely off the Saints board? I know there are bigger needs...just wanted to get everyone's thoughts.

I'm not against the position necessarily but i'm not quite sure why He's an elite prospect with such a slow 40. I watched some highlights... i just don't understand the absurd love for him. Maybe i'm missing something. Also a 6'4 safety is a bit unusual as well.

OT, WR. S, QB and DT are all best player available options.

Unless Garrett Wilson falls to us then I’d love Hamilton at 16

I made a thread a while back about guys who may fall and Hamilton was my #1. This was my original comment:

Kyle Hamilton's terrible pro day may cause him to slide. He's a S, so his value isn't high so it's hard to justify picking him top-10 unless he's a rare/perfect S. I think he may fall a bit and would fill a big need for that slot/SS hybrid role. He may ultimately project to Davis's replacement.

Yeah I think the thought it that he could develop into a hybrid middle LB type.

I'm really confused how you are leaping from Kyle Hamilton to Demario Davis...

If he falls, he would be in play.
Also, I wouldn’t be shocked if we took Daxton Hill or Lewis Cine with our second pick.

He is an absolute definition of ball hawk. His INT against FSU is a great example. He has been the key to the ND defense for the past few years, and it was very clear in the Fiesta Bowl when he didn't play. He would be a steal in the mid to late teens.

This infatuation with 40 times is crazy. Richard Sherman ran a 4.56 as a cornerback. Would you go back in time and draft Sherman?

speed is kind of essential when it comes to a back end ball hawking safety....

of course it is but when is the last time someone launched from a dead stop Olympic style starting position to a full sprint with no pads on the football field. Even defensive back are are normally in motion when transitioning into a full sprint. Top end speed is more important I watched randy moss burn corners who ran better 40's than him his whole career.

why would you think he's off our board?
Posted on 4/27/22 at 2:08 pm to BRL79
And he was a zone corner. In a damn near perfect situation with players around him. He didn't follow the #1 receiver. He stayed on 1 side of the field. Was he great for that defense yes. Was he a prototype of a shutdown corner? No.

He ran the 40 in 4.29 backward....

Ed Reed ran a 4.57. Sharper a 4.64. Hamilton's agility numbers are more worrisome IMO.

Is speed essential for a borderline hall of fame cornerback?
