  JiAyir Brown is locked in as a starter after proving last season he was one of the best safeties in the country alongside Brisker, but the position next to him could be up for grabs. The benefit of having Brown is that the leadership aspects of the position will be taken care of already, allowing whoever replaces Brisker to take on less of that responsibility this season. There are several options to replace Brisker, but Wheatley's breakout spring should put him in good position to start alongside Brown. While Wheatley will draw more intrigue because of his youth and upside, it's the veteran who should make the most impact this season.

Brown is one of the most versatile safeties in the country and established that in a major way alongside Brisker last season. He's excellent in coverage and has shown the ability to be a major asset whether he's playing as a deep safety or stepping up and playing man coverage. The senior was tied for first in the country in 2021 with six interceptions, showing the type of elite ball skills that allow him to be a game changer in the secondary. He relies on his instincts and high football IQ when he drops into zone, watching the play unfold and seeing where the quarterback is passing before the ball even comes out. When asked to play man, he's physical and can stay with receivers at a proficient level for a safety, even if he isn't elite in that regard. - Centre Times
