    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Raiders | Huff moving around the secondarySat, 1 Jul 2006 03:38:08 -0700Jason Jones, of the Sacramento Bee, reports the Oakland Raiders have not decided on a position yet for rookie CB/S Michael Huff. NFL.com has Huff's position listed as "none," while Raiders.com lists him at cornerback. Neither description is necessarily wrong. Huff is going to be asked to play all over the secondary, which suits him fine. "I love doing it all," said Huff, who was the seventh overall pick from Texas. "If it's just being deep at free safety, lining up and covering the slot or blitzing, I love doing it all." Huff has spent the offseason learning multiple spots in the Raiders' secondary and said he understands his skills are important to the defense's progress.</div>http://www.kffl.com/hotw/nfl

    He will be a saftey most likely. Few friends of mine that are Raider fans been saying they want him to line up like Troy Polamalu

    His talent set says he could be the next shut down corner though. Maybe if their DC is innovative enough they can come up with a way to interchange him between the two.

    I'd make him a safety like he was in college for the most part, but then in certain situations put him in at cornerback, because with his talent and ability sometimes you need to play out of position to come up with a big play. It's easier to use your speed as an advantage when you're at corner then it is at safety and this guy has plenty of it.
