James Lewis | S | Miami (FL) | Big East Conference
Selected by Indianapolis Colts in round 6, pick 11 (183 overall)
Height Weight 40 Grade
5'10 192 4.53 3.35
Three-year backup used at both free and strong safety as well as on special teams. Totaled 59/3/4 as a senior after 26/0/4 the prior year.

Explosive run defending safety best in a straight line. Quick moving up the field, displays pop at the point of attack and wraps up tackling, bringing opponents down on initial contact. Displays focus and concentration as well as good hands when making the interception. A bit too aggressive moving up the field, does not play with great body control and slow reacting to the pass. Has difficulty making plays laterally or in reverse. Best chance is as a backup strong safety that must produce on special teams. Free Agent.
