[QUOTE="Shawnsta3, post: 544633, member: 5065"] If I'm any current GM I'd tread [I]very [B]very[/B][/I] carefully with drafting Calvin Pryor. The #1 thing he's known for is laying out big hits. Even if they are legal hits they [I]still[/I] might get flagged in today's NFL. It's a risky proposition. Not his fault, but he's coming out in the wrong era. The main difference in the eyes off scouts between Pryor and Clinton-Dix was Pryor was the big SS type who could step up in the box and lay some wood on a running back at 6"2 (ala Kam Chancellor). Whereas Clinton-Dix was more the FS type to drop back into coverage at 5"11 (ala Earl Thomas). While him mysteriously not being the big safety we thought he was and shrinking three inches is concerning, what's more concerning is the fact we didn't know this about him. It makes you wonder..what else don't you know about the kid? And if he has the same body type as Clinton-Dix, why wasn't he more successful in coverage? [/QUOTE]
