Tyler Nubin 1st Round Draft Pick

[GopherinPhilly]

Does Tyler Nubin slip into the first round? Saw him going to Green Bay in a mock draft...many have him as the highest rated safety on the board. What MN with their newly acquired first round pick?

DBU! Ski-U-Mah!

Most consider him the best safety in the draft so could slide into the 1st if someone really wants a safety. Most likely early to mid 2nd from what I’ve seen.

Safeties, much like RB’s, have been devalued in the NFL the last several years, I expect him to go somewhere high to middle of round 2. I keep hearing that he would be a great fit in Green Bay, but selfishly I really don’t want to see him in a Packers uniform.

He didn't participate at the combine and his pro day numbers weren't good. Not sure if it's because of the post-season procedure he had on his knee, but his RAS score (which the Packers value highly) is well below what a first or maybe even a second rounder will have. Hopefully some team sees what he did on film during his career and makes the call based on that.

His athleticism never really jumped out to me so I'm not that shocked his numbers are low.

For comparison, here's Antoine's RAS coming out of school. Aside from size, which he can't control, his numbers are glaringly better than Nubin's, especially the composite speed grade. I'm guessing Nubin drops to a 3rd or 4th round grade based on this.

I definitely feel like he is a first-round talent. But it may just be the case that not a lot of teams are in the market for a safety in an offensively loaded draft.

Yea, and Bucs got steal of century getting Winfield in 2nd round. A great safety can wreak havoc. Like Smith his first 6 years or so.

Really? I thought Winfield was way better and he was not a first rounder.

I would not take Nubin with a first round pick.
