Samford's Jaquiski Tartt will be drafted higher than his

projections in the media. He has size, speed, & talent.

Jaquiski Tartt .

Samford safety Jaquiski Tartt could be a steal in #NFL Draft.

NFL.com Charles Davis said on NFL Network's "NFL AM" that Tartt (6-foot-1, 220 pounds) is "an absolute missile" and said Tartt had "SEC skills"

[in reply to: “really liking the film on Jaquiski Tartt . Steal in round 2?”]

Might be a steal in the 3rd.

Jaquiski Tartt is a monstar, like the guys from Space Jam. 6'1",

221 lbs., 32 3/8" arms and 9 7/8" hands. Just ran a 4.46 forty.

athletically the safety group isn't great:

November 01, 2012 - Alabama paper:

"the sophomore safety has developed into one of the top players in the country. ... The 6-foot-2, 213-pound Tartt has been a dominant force in college football despite playing only his senior season at Davidson High in Mobile. ... "I was actually playing basketball for three years. I played football my whole life until I started playing basketball in the eighth grade and fell in love with basketball. ... The football coaches and my friends wanted me to come out and play"

...

(Although Miss State was recruiting him) he chose Samford because his mother, a traveling nurse who goes as far as California for her job, wanted to go there herself because of the pharmacy program.

"I didn't want to do the traveling (from Mobile to Birmingham), but she kept telling me it was a great school," said Tartt

...

his college coach:

"He's just got that knack," Sullivan said. "He reads things well. He's got great range for a safety and he can really run. He's a physical kid. That combination makes him a heck of a football player."

i agree Davos. he brings the wood when he hits. comes to hit with bad intentions. I'm a fan.

 

He screams our style given who we've brought in for the secondary.  I don't think we have a single DB under 6'0 anymore minus Coleman who's just 5'11 1/2.  Mentioned this in another thread:

 

 

People have discussed Collins a lot, made a big deal about Shaq's abilities if he moves to S, and even Russell to an extent but Tartt is the biggest and fastest of the top SS prospects.  6'1 220, tenacious style, strengths in run-support, physical tackler, good awareness.  I know the safety class is weaker than usual as a whole but Tartt could be a good one to come out of it. 

 

We seem to like DBs that fall into that big, athletic, and fierce run-support type.  Tartt fits the bill better than any of the SS prospects in my opinion.  A hair under 6'2, 4.47 40 and could supplant Harper quickly in case Roman starts to really show wear and tear the coming season.  Harper in his prime with better coverage skills.   Like Reshad Jones a bit.

    • I like that a lot; Ware from Troy and also Khalil Mack who played at University of Buffalo
    • I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛
    • bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
