Hill played FS at Miami, so it'll be interesting how that works out with Dawkins. My guess is Dawkins will move to SS and play the role with more run support like we were used to seeing with Lynch. Hill is younger and played CB in college, so it's logical he's got the better range for FS coverage duties. We'll see. Crap it's only March and the draft is yet to come. Dang I hate the offseason.
