Can't complain too much tho when you nab Hightower and Jones in the 1st round.Yeah well TY Hilton went 2 picks after Bequette so we missed a lot more than Iloka.
Yeah those 2 were good picks. Jamie Collin the year after was outstanding too. Since we are fans we can still complain though [emoji12]Can't complain too much tho when you nab Hightower and Jones in the 1st round.
If we had the ability to hindsight Draft players we'd all be pretty strong GM candidates.Yeah those 2 were good picks. Jamie Collin the year after was outstanding too. Since we are fans we can still complain though [emoji12]

We on the same page brother. This is going to be the year, Jake will no longer be held back by Bill Belichick...[emoji108]Don't worry, Jake Bequette will have a breakout season in 2015.
While I dodge the rotten tomatoes...
He hasn't played much, some garbage time. Of course he plays special teams, but I just watch the games and sometimes I'll notice a good play, hard hit, surprising speed, and I've noticed him more than once.
Of course this isn't an argument about draft position. No doubt other players drafted around that time stepped right in as starters. Others were busts - never to be heard from again - but at least they went before Mel Kiper said they should, so that's OK.
Back to Wilson. He's big (6' 215) fast and played corner, safety and slot in college. As contracts go, he stands to go into his prime, because he's a special teams stalwart, as a very affordable option, if he's learned from his 2nd year mistakes. Since we scored on Chung 2.0 and Harmon is decent and young, it seems, with good attitudes and improvement, that we're growing a decent, affordable safety squad regardless of free agent exigencies.
Since I expect a rotten tomato or two on this, I'd like to mention this article which says Wilson had 7 visits besides the Patriots and who appointed the people who picked Johnny Manziell to be number one through five and a downright bargain at 22 anyway?
Wilson a reach in Round 2? Not to Bill Belichick
Lots of players in the league now who showed little for 2-3 years and we praise the teams smart enough to see the diamond in the rough. I see a big maybe for the future, but that's because I'm not smart enough to tell a late bloomer from a clunker anyway.
Thoughts on this, or the less heralded members of the secondary going forward?
You guys DO know he played 50 snaps last night, most of them at CB, right?I'm ok with him being our 8th Free Safety in the depth chart.
