Congratulations to Washington State Cougar Safety Deone Bucannon, as he was drafted in the 1st round of tonight’s 2014 NFL Draft. The 3-time Defensive Captain Bucannon finished his Wazzu career by collecting 1st Team all Pac 12, 1st Team All American honors, as well as the CFPA Elite Defensive Back trophy. He is a big physical, hard-hitting Safety, who has great speed with a 4.49 40yrd dash. Bucannon was selected 27th overall by the Arizona Cardinals. Deone will now be paired with Tyrann Mathieu creating a defensive backfield combo that will try to mimic that of division rival the Seattle Seahawks with a big physical SS and a undersized, lightening quick playmaking FS.
What's your take?
