Come the NFL draft in April, the biggest dilemma for whoever picks first overall might not be who to pick, but what side of the field to play him on. Travis Hunter projects to be that first pick, and is a wide receiver/cornerback combo, both receiving passes from his quarterback and dissuading opposing quarterbacks from throwing toward him.
For the Colorado Buffaloes, Hunter plays a sizable portion of team snaps in both roles. He's caught 49 passes for 587 yards and six touchdowns this year, while defending three passes, intercepting two, and forcing a fumble on the defensive side of the ball. Simply put, no matter who has the ball, you have to be cognizant of Hunter.
