What do you think of Zeke Motta last night? I think he is too slow in coverage but a decent mid round pick.
When speaking of Safetys, Eric Reid and Matt Elam get all the headlines, but the better players may be outta of the Big 12, Tony Jefferson and Kenny Vaccaro.

The Notre Dame Secondary was considered the weakness of the defense, and especially after last nate, Motta allowed Bama receivers to get by him all too often. Good open field tackler but has a lot of coverage flaws from what I saw. Only seen Notre Dame play 3 or 4 times though so I am not sure how he did in other games.
Tony Jefferson is going to be a good safety, but never jumped out, the WVU game he got abused but WVU does have Austin and Bailey... but those are the type of receivers he will be going against every week in the NFL. Vaccaro did poorly against OSU, Oklahoma and WVU.
Elam and Reid are the two safeties that every time I watched those teams played just jumped out. Especially Elam. He was all over the place in almost every game. But scouts have more knowledge on technique and ability and they state Vaccaro is the number one safety in this draft.
