I like Kam Chancellor and Morgan Burnett better personally, but Allen seems to be a heck of a prospect.

[TACKLE]

Personally, I like Reshad Jones as my #3 safety. Though to be honest, I haven't seen much of Nate Allen.

[Tampa 2 4 life]

Nate Allen is a beast. Although picking off Greg Paulus isn't that special.

[JFLO]

I have Darrell Stuckey at #3 then Allen at the 4 spot.

Scott, if you don't mind, what are your brief thoughts on Darrell Stuckey?

It sounds like Jones will come out but he's a little overrated.

[Thumper]

Morgan Burnett is my #3 and Reshad Jones is my #4 just slightly ahead of Allen.

Allen IMO is the #2 senior safety but is behind Berry, Burnett and Jones IMO

I can understand that. He was looking like a potential Top 20 pick coming into the draft but he'll probably end up an early 2nd. Nate Allen may be a bit better in coverage but I think Jones is a more physical presence. Depends what kind of safety you're looking for.

I like Stuckey a lot, to me he is a legit second or third rounder.

Not flashy but does everything well and passes both the physical tools and intangibles tests.

Can you call Trae Williams an NFL-quality defensive back if he's been bouncing around the league for two years and is yet to play a snap?

[bhaarat316]

Steelers need a safety badly.

[Cicero]

Scott if Earl Thomas declares where would you put him? He's my 3rd safety if he does.

I meant more in terms of how he entered the league as a mid-round pick.

Well, Thomas is only a redshirt sophomore but if he comes out he's going to be right up there. Most likely just behind Berry and Mays. Heck of a player.

[D-Unit]

I love Allen. I want to see him continue to do well this season.

Looked like dog **** against Bama, but I didn't see how he played against Miami. All I know was that he was getting burned all night in the bama game.

[RaiderNation]

I like Reshad Jones and Major Wright more than Allan at this point.

Does Wright even start for the Gators?

I think Will Hill is listed higher, and I saw Hill on the field a ton at free safety, so that could, and probably is the case.

[Scott Wright]

I would imagine Major Wright needs to focus on winning back his starting job before he thinks about leaving early for the pros.

Both those guys are very overrated.

[wonderbredd24]

I got a chance to watch Nate Allen play FSU and he looks good. He's a big guy who can hit, but he's capable of playing free safety.

A very attractive skill set. I'm a fan

[HinesWardJr]

What about Chad Jones? I believe he is a legit 6'2-220 with 4.5 speed. Stud prospect.

[Saints-Tigers]

It's Chad Jones. He's probably faster than 4.5 to be honest.
