Lathan random underrated. He had some struggles in 2022 towards the end of the season, but vastly improved his coverage in 2023. He was also osu’s most consistent tackler last year before he got hurt, he was a huge loss especially for the michigan game

[@tshiesty6022]

you ain’t lying. one of my biggest issues with Day and his staff is that don’t rotate for shit even again schools like akron

[@mileshall3177]

He’s a prototypical strong safety. Really good at run fitting from 12 to 15 yards off the ball and has gotten a lot better in coverage over the past year

[@oshaesmith927]

So no Billy Bowman?

[@jsyd634]

Definitely Needs to be in there Great Call

[@mainopp1068]

U definitely head on nd matter facts he needs to be 3rd behind M.starks nd C.downs

[@Sooner4Life28]

Should be a crime to not have Billy Bowman Jr as a top ten safety.

[@kevinchavis8462]

A michigan fan tried to tell me that Rod Moore was a better player than Caleb Downs lol, Moore got injured in the offseason but he is not a better safety than Caleb Downs

[@dinklefan9201]

he played better last year when on the field

[@jsyd634]

You guys are the standard…… clean to the point information. Football !!! Shi-+ No fluff

[@PFFCFB]

@@jsyd634 Thanks so much!

[@jordanhickey9785]

Keon Sabb was a huge loss for Michigan. I was bummed he left

[@Alex-gw9id]

I think RJ Mickens from Clemson should have made the list. This will be his 3rd year starting. In 3 years, he hasn’t allowed more than 100 yards in any year and he’s only given up 1 TD to 5 INTs. He only has a 10% missed tackle rate

[@PFFCFB]

Definitely thought about him! Was one of the top honorable mentions

[@joshuathebuckeyeartistbarton]

Ransom should be ahead of saab

[@pblanks23]

def not. Keon would start over him so that makes no sense. your just a despressed OSU fan lmaoo

[@butterxo3094]

Where would you rank Rod Moore if he wasn’t hurt

[@PFFCFB]

Max had him 7th in his safety rankings. He likely would’ve been around there

[@dinklefan9201]

Why is sabb above makari paige? Sabb was backing him up and that’s the reason he transferred

[@dylandean5043]

Billy bowman…that defense had more picks than allowed passing tds. Billy bowman is a mile ahead of most of these guys…what a joke

[@thehistoryexpert82]

So Xavier Watts is the returning Defensive Player of the Year! But only the 5th best safety, garbage list

[@williamfoster990]

CALEB DOWNS IS THE BEST PLAYER IN CFB
