The Miami Hurricanes’ defensive line has gotten most of the attention so far this season, but the best prospect on the defense might actually be in the secondary. The latest mock draft at CBSSports.com only has one Miami prospect projected to land in the first round: cornerback Michael Jackson.
Jackson is off to a strong start of his own this season and it earned him recognition as the projected No. 15 pick to the Washington Redskins at the midway point of the regular season.
“At 6-1 and 205 pounds, Jackson looks like a chiseled safety,” Chris Trapasso wrote for CBS Sports.
