What makes you a top prospect at your position  in the 2023 NFL Draft?

I believe I am one of the top prospects because of the following: 1) My IQ for the game, 2) My versatility to either play in the box as a backer or In the flats and Deep thirds as a safety. 3) My drive and willingness to compete at any level, any position, against any player.

It had to be coming off a Torn MCL from last season.
