Building an Entire Draft Board: Safety Rankings

[Chaos]

Based on NFL.com grades, NFL.com estimates 18 Safties will be selected in the draft. 10 of these players have grades suggesting they could be selected in the first four rounds. 

Based on PFF grades, PFF estimates 14 Safties will be selected in the draft. 8 of these players have rankings suggesting they could be selected in the first four rounds.

 The are ranked by NFL.com grade, and the ranking within PFF for WR's is shown in the right hand column.  If any of the top 3, Paris Johnson, Pete Skoronski, or Broderick Jones are available at the 27th, I presume Beane will be running over and through people to get to the podium.  Depending on price, It might even be worth trading up for one of those three.  None of the safties is projected to go in the first round by either NFL grade rank or PFF rank (Note Brian Branch is considered a CB by NFL.com so is not included here, although he seems to be projected as a safety.

Sydney Brown in 2nd or Hickman in 3/4 seem to be the best options, assuming we go offense in 1st and or second.   

 

Some good depth here for the draft.  

[Mark Vader]

Antonio Johnson would be a good pick

[GunnerBill]

Branch here (he is a safety to me) or Antonio Johnson the only ones worth considering at #27. 

 

Again not arguing for a safety but they are two of the safest picks in a bad draft IMO.

Then everyone here will talk about how awful our picks are and that they want Beane fired immediately.

 

Then in 8-12 hours everyone here will be raving about all of the UDFA's we have signed, and that Beane is a wizard.
