I like watching Mukuba play. Experienced transfer from Clemson that combines top notch athletic ability and great coverage awareness to form a very well rounded DB prospect that could play either safety or nickel corner. His game against Michigan was outstanding he displayed all the traits you want to see from a modern safety. He's consistently gotten better and better throughout his college career and someone that could be of interest to the 49ers as a versatile piece on the defense.

Texas S Andrew Mukuba had himself a game yesterday. Here he knows he has deep help, so he fakes 2-high/taking the streaking WR to bait the QB into throwing under. He then keys on Michigan's play making TE to make a fantastic PBU. pic.twitter.com/tuoFs8E9E2

NFL Pick 'em

Liked him at Clemson too, he has elite short area quickness but looked on the light side. He would definitely look good in the slot and deep safety in the NFL. He is so quick

Fills a major hole for us. Starks will be out of our range but I'd love this pick. One of the few holes to plug to make our defense whole.
