With the 229th pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers have taken Miami safety Adrian Colbert.
Colbert began his career at Texas before transferring to Miami in 2016. For his collegiate career, the defensive back totaled 48 tackles, two interceptions and four passes defended.
Mike Mayock noted on Twitter during his pre-draft preparations that Colbert was an underrated prospect in this class.
“You can never question his ‘big hit’ ability, though,” added Russell Brown of Fox Sports. “Time and time again, he will come down and demolish anyone in his way.”
