Where does each guy fit on the defense, and what position do they play? Also going to throw out some comparisons to NFL guys.

Al Blades Jr. - Physical Corner, not necessarily a ball hawk CB (Malcolm Butler/Desmond Trufant)

Gurvan Hall - Hard Hitting Safety with crazy Range S (Landon Collins)

Gilbert Frierson
- I know many here think he projects best to safety because of his range but I think Corner would be his best position, especially if we pick up TC. CB (Xavier Rhodes)

D.J. Ivey
- Silky Smooth, and long CB (Darius Slay)

I'd prefer to see Frierson as a Safety, but nothing says he can't try CB and then switch over.
 
I think Blades is more suited to play corner than frierson but both eventually will end up at safeties

I seriously doubt both end up at safeties.

Especially since We have Gurvan Hall.

If we didn't have Hall then I could see those two potentially finding their way to Safety. But with Hall in this class, Id only expect one guy getting moved to S.

Would love to see Frierson and Hall at Safety. Imagine the range, playmaking ability and striking back there.

Interested to watch Blades at CB. Does he possess the athleticism that his pops didn't really have? Dad was a big mean intimidator back there who didn't move all that well or have much change of direction skills. Junior looks more lanky with more finesse in his game. I hope he develops at CB and has the athleticism to play there at a high level.
