Kyle Hamilton

[Shocker]

I realize that most, me included are probably just ignoring this guy with our QB and OL needs, understandably so but this guy has the look of the best “football player” in this draft.  Be it at safety, LB or whatever this dude is a punisher.  Good ball skills and instincts in coverage as well.  Damn it would be nice to plug him into this defense but probably other positions will be the focus.  Would not kill me if he is the pick at 6 because he is more than worth that pick.

I'm with ya.  I think he is a top 5 player in this draft.  I really like Brisker too though.

We really don’t need a LB or Safety with our top 10 pick. I get he is going to be great, but by the time we actually fix our offense Burns, Chinn, Horn etc are going to want to get paid. If one of the big 3 LTs makes it to us, it should be easy…

The knee would obviously need to be checked but again I doubt we pick him anyway.  McShay just released his new mock and has us taking Sauce Gardner.  I just don’t see it but he joins Brooks and Jeremiah mocking us him.  If the main OTs go I definitely see a move down but who knows atp.

LOL…I highly doubt this happens.  I would be more worried they trade up for Pickett which would be just perfect horseshet

I'll be honest. He reminds me of Roman Harper. That's all I could see when watching him play. He has a very stiff upper body, which worries me if he is playing deep.

[BlitzMonster]

At this point Hamilton is generally considered the top player in the draft.  We'll see how he performs at the Combine.  But S / LB is pretty rare to take very high in the draft.  Those positions just aren't as highly valued.  

Would Hamilton be a reasonable option at #6 if all the LT were gone and no trade down were possible ??  I actually wouldn't hate the pick at that point because I think a team gets better in the long term adding great talent.  But the draft value (and salary cap numbers at that position) wouldn't be ideal.

I can see some of that as well.  He roamed all over for ND and the playmaking is pretty awesome especially in run support.  He does have nice ball skills in coverage IMO.  Real possibility he goes before 6 as well.

When a franchise of our size has a chance to get the best football player in the draft, you do it. That’s how we got Luke.

Hamilton would not be a smart pick at 6. I know what some are thinking with the draft a FS to move Chinn to hybrid SS where he belongs, but Hamilton is not a FS you want to leave in very many single high situations. Lewis Cine is the FS you should be targeting if you can add a early 2nd round pick somehow.
