Jaden Hicks Draft Profile:
- The 'Good' from Chat Sports' Tom Downey (@whatgoingdowney on Twitter):
Excellent ball skills, strong in zone coverage, physical in run support.
- via The Athletic's Dane Brugler:
Hicks is a rangy, intimidating presence, both downhill and on the back end, and he offers the multi-dimensional traits to develop into an NFL starter... Projects as a scheme-friendly safety who should also contribute immediately on special teams.
GRADE: 2nd Round (No. 39 overall)
- via PFF:
Hicks is a well-built strong safety who can play at all three levels of the field. He is a tone-setting tackler and has starting potential in two-safety systems especially as a strong safety/robber over the middle.
- Downey's 'Bad':
Needs to improve overall strength; Can be inconsistent in run stopping; Struggles with technique consistency.
Jared Wiley Draft Profile:
- The 'Good' from Chat Sports' Tom Downey (@whatgoingdowney on Twitter):
- via The Athletic's Dane Brugler:
Wiley is more of a post-up target than a tight end who will consistently create space for himself, but he is a good-sized athlete with blocking toughness and ball skills. He projects as a rotational Y tight end who can gradually work his way...
GRADE: 3rd Round (No. 89 overall)
