DB class is deep but lacks superstars
Vital skill sets
http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/draft...odd&id=3351102 Instincs/confidence Rarely peeks in the backfield on play-action. Senses when the ball is up in the air. Knows receivers' tendencies and how to attack them. Always in position when it counts. Confidence and "selective amnesia" are also important qualities. Best in cornerback class: Brandon Flowers, Virginia Tech Best in safety class: Jamie Silva, Boston College Closing burst Quickness and speed are premiums at the CB position. Upper echelon DB's typically run the short-shuttle in 4.20 seconds or faster, the three-cone drill in 7.1 seconds or faster and the 40-yard dash in 4.49 seconds or faster. Best in cornerback class: Tyvon Branch, Connecticut Best in safety class: Josh Barrett, Arizona State
