At the Senior Bowl, Miami has four players representing the University of Miami: Kamren Kinchens, James Williams, and Javion Cohen.
According to a report by Bleacher Report, Kam Kinchens is already standing out among his peers:
Kinchens looked like the best safety on the field in Mobile. It's only one day, but his status as the top-ranked safety in this year's draft class may not come into question.
He showcased his versatility in man coverage, as a deep safety, or filling the alley in the run game. That versatility on the back end should continue to appear throughout the week.
The article also featured an interview with James Williams making his transition to linebacker:
Bleacher Report: How is the move from safety to linebacker initially, and is this switch potentially something that will be a big part of your professional career?
James Williams: I am open to it and willing to play whatever they want me to play. This week, I want to show them that I can play linebacker since they want to try me there. Either way, it's an opportunity to showcase my talent and show them why I'm here.
B/R: Does that mean the rest of the predraft process will be spent with you performing as a linebacker?
JW: At the combine, I'll just be doing DB workouts. Here, I'll show I can play linebacker. There, I'll be a DB. But I plan to show them I can do whatever they want me to do.
B/R: Is there the thought that the potential change will force you to change your style of play or potentially add weight over time?
JW: I'm an open book. I'm ready to do whatever.
B/R: With the stresses of the biggest job interview to become an NFL athlete, what allows you to unwind and not worry as much about what's being asked of you throughout this process?
JW: I'm a big video game guy. I'm a Madden player. If you want to play me, DM on Instagram, Twitter and Tik-Tok. Let's do it [he said with a smile]. But my favorite game of all time is Call of Duty.
