He's a second or third rounder at safety, not an nfl corner, doesn't have the jets. He is physical enough to play safety at the next level. He's gotten a bad rap this year, he's been a very good tackler during his career and is very physical. Didn't hear Urban Meyers comments the other day, sounded like he was dogging him some, can't speak intelligently on that but I can say, that the assertions that were ascribed to Meyers, don't fit what i've seen from Prater through his whole body of work at Iowa. Prater is way better than Fletcher, that's crazy talk. Fletcher may be a better cover corner, but he's not a better Defensive Back, and in Iowa system I'd take Prater over Fletcher anyday. Spievey is one of the best corners we've ever had, so yeah putting Prater in that league, he's not. But again, spievey was a legit corner, Prater is much more suited to play Safety at the next level.
