Ugo Amadi

While some of the other options were outside cornerbacks who will move inside in the NFL, Ugo Amadi was a safety who could very easily move into the nickel, or add dime value in the NFL.

Amadi won the Lombardi Award, which represents high character as a student athlete. He is a player who was voted a captain early into his career, and got on the field early into his career. He is a player who can fit into a culture of a winning locker room.

Of course, he also has to play football. Amadi is a safety, but does not have the speed or size to hang in the NFL at safety.

He is a smart player with quick and a strong ability to tackle. Amadi also plays with a mean streak blitzing off of the edge which could be reminiscent to Bryce Callahan.

Amadi could be a late round pick that turns into a special teams leader, and depth player who can add in nickel and dime situations. It could be a great value addition.
