SO you think they might be "chasing edges"? Oh, see what I did there?
I'm just here for the bitching and moaning and lamentations of how our draft picks suck and how this team, despite going 14-3, beating four 12 win teams down the stretch, blowing out NE in the SB, having an all time great defense, a coach who won a SB in his second year and an executive of the year GM, still sucks. :lol:

Plus I want to get DT to his coveted 5 posts prediction. :lol:

You know me I'm usually a big complainer but I'm very happy with the draft.

Nah, the thinking on here will be "his three kick return TD's that changed the season are irrelevent - we could have had those two picks!! JS SUCKS! We don't need a trophy, we needed those picks!"

DT: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

LOVE this about Bud Clark!!!
“I love his backpedal,” Bumpus said. “A smooth backpedal. Great hips. There’s a route where the receiver takes him to the corner, he flips the hips to the post and it looked easy. Great awareness too. He feels the ball, he’s on his receivers, and it’s almost like he has a radar where he feels the ball coming (and) throws a hand up at the right time.
As opposed to DBs that just run and run and assume 11 seconds into the play the ball still is almost there yet.

Clark seems more like a cover corner despite playing safety and Neal seems more like a safety despite playing CB in that he is rated highest as a tackler in run support.

Neal is an inch taller and 15 lbs heavier than Clark.

The way the draft has gone, woolen was clearly replaceable. It's really whether they chose the correct replacement. It would point to using the first pick on Price. There wasn't a reason to give Woolen $15 MIL when you can find a replacement on a rookie contract. That to me is a question of depth. Mafe fits that too in my mind.
