Random fact

Seisay spent two seasons at Memphis before transferring to a junior college for the 2011 season. He then transferred to Nebraska for the final two years of his college career.

What the experts are saying

NFL.com:

A big, athletic height-weight-speed prospect with intriguing length and short-area quickness to develop as a short-area press corner. Has a chance to compete with simplified assignments.

Detroit Lions Draft:

Big, well-built corner who was more physical than more heralded teammate Stanley Jean-Baptiste. Launched his draft profile with a truly astonishing pro day workout, where all of his numbers except the 40 would have been the best-in-show at the Combine.

Outlook for 2014

Barring injuries to numerous players at cornerback, it's tough to imagine a situation where Seisay will actually contend for a spot on the 53-man roster. Perhaps he could do enough to make a case for the practice squad, but that seems to be his best hope for 2014.
