Miami Dolphins columnist Omar Kelly continues our 10-part series looking at the top prospects in the upcoming NFL draft (April 29-May 1) with the safeties.

Expect a run at this position on Day 2, then plenty of activity on Day 3 when teams are trying to fill out their draft with special team contributors.
The Jim Thorpe Award winner is a dynamic safety with corner-like coverage skills.
