Linebacker/safety hybrids seem to be all the rage in this year’s draft, from elite talents like Clemson’s Isaiah Simmons to small-school stars like Lenoir-Rhyne’s Kyle Dugger and Southern Illinois’s Jeremy Chinn. But there’s a big-school prospect that fits, and he’s flying under the radar.

While some may look at Hudson and see a ‘tweener with no position at the next level, I see a versatile defender who can make plays all over the field, no matter where he lines up at the snap. He’s projected as a Day 3 pick by most, and the right scheme and defensive coordinator will make him look like a huge bargain.
