Another sleeper Shaquill Griffin, DB, Central Florida.
It is rumored that Griffin is running 4.3s in his preparation for the draft. If that is the case Shaquill will be high demand at the draft.

“Staying on the theme of running faster than expected, keep an eye on Central Florida cornerback Shaquill Griffin during the final day of the combine. He’s been training at the Michael Johnson facility in preparation for his combine workout, and I’m told the trainers believe Griffin is ready to run “an elite time,” which means under 4.35.”

He was always highly thought of, but the knock against him was his lack of straight line speed. If he can run a sub 4.4 forty he would be a great late round pick for the Giants. He can play CB or safety.
Lance Zierlein
"Has good size and strength. Has a disruptive punch and feet to impede in press coverage. Loose and athletic in his movement. Able to flip hips and match receivers without giving up much early separation in his transition. Allowed just 32.9 percent of throws his way to be completed. Possesses plus ball skills. Uses well-timed leaps and strong hands to challenge at the catch point. Is a rake it or take it cornerback with 34 passes defensed over the last two seasons, including six interceptions. Runs through targets looking to jar the catch loose. Aggressive in run support. Looks to play through receivers on the way to the ball. Can wrap up or chop down running backs."
