I won't cut and paste the article but he chooses the best DB by category. See below:
Best overall cover corner - Marshon Lattimore, Ohio State
Best instincts - Jamal Adams, LSU
Best range - Malik Hooker, Ohio State
Jack-of-all-trades - Jabrill Peppers, Michigan
Best press-man skills - Kevin King, Washington
Most physical coverage corner - Marlon Humphrey, Alabama
Most overlooked DB - Budda Baker, Washington
Biggest freak - Obi Melifonwu, Connecticut
Best tackling corner - Desmond King, Iowa
DB I'd want to coach - Tre'Davious White, LSU
Best ball skills - Malik Hooker, Ohio State
Best slot corner - Jourdan Lewis, Michigan
Best transition ability - Gareon Conley, Ohio State
Special teams game-breaker - Adoree' Jackson, USC
Best down-the-field technique - Sidney Jones, Washington
Biggest hitter - Rayshawn Jenkins, Miami
Classic box safety, similar to Johnathan Cyprien. Great at Senior Bowl. Good size and testing numbers. Could play nickel linebacker.
Mid-round sleeper - Corn Elder, Miami
Plays with toughness, good fit at nickel. Can play special teams and sub-packages as a rookie. Competitive at Senior Bowl.
