I don’t think either are anywhere near worth picking in the top 30. I know he said fall to 3-4 but I’m just picking guys I could easily see drop out of the first round based on where people are mocking them.

I am not a believer in Dax Hill. His play never impressed me when I watched him. Saw several of their games as a Buckeye fan. Their pass rushers were LEGIT this year and really surprised me. Hutchinson should without a doubt be the first player selected this year IMO. Ojabo was a top 10 player before his injury as well. They made that defense work.

The secondary, including Hill never impressed me. He may go high, but I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to see him bust. He’s overrated. A lot of his big plays will never happen against NFL QB’s or TE/WR’s. He won’t be able to recover at the next level the way he did against middling talents in college. I also wouldn’t be shocked if NFL teams weren’t as high on him as fans/analysts. It’s a deep draft in the secondary so if you’re looking for fallers that’s a great place to start.

Hill's my #2 safety in the draft. I see him far better as a true FS than someone like Cine or Pitre. I just like his coverage ability better than theirs.

Re: Raimann - TDN has him as their 66th overall prospect. He has athleticism, but he's got such terrible length to stick on the outside. Plus, he's already 24 years old and still somewhat raw. I can see someone taking a chance on him due to his athleticism, but I don't personally like to spend 1st rounder on a raw, older prospect.
