Average backup safety with the mental makeup necessary to become a good special teams performer on the next level. Wingard is a rugged run-stopper near the line of scrimmage and an adequate tackler in space as well. He has adequate instincts and anticipation for his backend duties and soft hands to take it away when throws sail his way. His lack of plus athleticism and makeup speed could create a ceiling on his draft value, but he's a good Day 3 value with a solid shot of making a roster.
Former walk-on who has became an impact defender the moment he stepped on campus in Laramie. Epps saw an increase in snaps over the slot last season but lacks the smooth hips and short-area quickness to match routes on the next level. He was a plus tester at his pro day and it is hard to ignore the steady stream of production, but he lacks size for the box and the makeup burst as a high safety so his road to the 53-man roster will be daunting.
