sadly, he becomes the highest drafted corner on the roster.

started his first-career game and led the defensive backs with a career-high seven tackles, six solo, three passes defensed and two interceptions, the first of his career, vs. Pittsburgh (12/30).

I see they have some history with him lol

do you think this might have something to do with our need at CB?

i really hope we draft a CB in the first 3 rounds this year, there will be a lot of good prospects available and we need to add some competition at this all-important position.

absolutely, if casey is tagged and

if thomas is there at 18, i'd take him and then a CB in the 2nd.

we definitely need to improve our cover units in the defensive backfield, there is absolutely no question about it. whether that comes via the draft, free agency, the return of Troy, the improvement of Lewis, Burnett, Gay or whatever...we cannot hope to win the Super Bowl again if we don't.

Not a bad pickup. Just as much potential as many first day draft picks would have.
