Do I think Hill will be fine at deep Safety but I also do not think it's a place he will thrive 

Hill played nickel CB some, sure. But it wasn't all he played.
He has the range to be a potential pro bowl caliber safety.
He's at his best keeping the action in front of him and attacking downfield.
There's some worry that while he's fluid and fast, he's not very sticky as a CB, which might cause some problems playing DB.

I still stand by I'd like to see how he does at safety before taking yet another safety and moving him to nickel.

Heck, you can still move him to nickel and just play Battle and Scott at safety if you wanted.

Talking about drafting a new safety yet again just feels too premature in my book.
If you wanted to sell me on drafting a new nickel CB on Day 2 who can groom behind Hilton for a year, I'd buy that more.
