—Has the speed to stay with receivers in coverage and is good in the slot.

—Has experience as a kick returner.

—Will wow as an athlete on the field and in drills.

NEGATIVES

—Finesse safety prospect who has to win with speed.

—Non-factor in the run game when in traffic.

OVERALL

Natrell Jamerson is a case study in evaluating traits over production. He's fast, completed 25 repetitions on the bench and looks the part. But his film is disappointing when judged against his combine numbers. He could just be coming into his own, or he could be a workout warrior.

GRADE: 5.25 (Priority Free Agent)

PRO COMPARISON: Kelcie McCray, Buffalo Bills
