The intrigue of Dallas Lloyd
Both interceptions were cases that involved Trubisky coming under pressure and Lloyd cutting in front of the pass for a pick. What makes it all the more compelling is the backstory of Lloyd himself. He actually began his career at Stanford as a quarterback before being asked to switch to safety. It took some time but he soon began to master the position and it showed with his five interceptions in 2016. At 6'2" he has premier size with good athleticism. What really stands out though, as the videos show, is his instinct and ball skills. Though not the fastest or quickest defensive back on the field, he's likely the smartest. Lloyd is rarely ever out of position.Everybody by this point knows the Bears are in hot pursuit of help at the safety position. Lloyd may be the most intriguing of their undrafted free agent defensive backs at the minicamp. His size and tape reveal a player who can be the brains of the operation on defense. Something they haven't had for years. Meanwhile he also brings special teams prowess. One should never turn that down. If nothing else Lloyd is almost certain to delight in the chance to intercept Trubisky one more time.
