Ben Hanks III is a redshirt freshman defensive back who figures into the two-deep for Florida. A high-ceiling defender, he profiles as a developmental piece with a long way to go.
Highly-rated (n59) redshirt freshman corner with a tiny 3-game sample (8 tackles, INT, 2 PD) but penciled in as RCB2. Flashed but unproven; the pedigree feeds the ceiling, the current grade is held down by the thin body of work.
