Is Dominique Rodger-Cromartie Worth the #7 Pick?

*sigh* Another midget? I get it, you hate the thought of DRC in a Pats uniform. .

At the cost of a first round pick? Absolutely correct.

Or three rounds better than Jack Williams, Kent State:
5-9 177 4.32 (1.47, 2.53) Vert 41 Bench 18 Broad 10 6 Short 4.21 3C 6.61

He led the nation in forced fumbles as a junior, and recorded 93 tackles (6 1/2 for loss) 3 INTs and 8 passes defended in 2007.

It's a shame his name isn't Jack Williams-Bailey, because we'd be talking about taking him with the #7 pick...or I guess after a trade-down, since he's shorter than DRC.

I was surprised that you did not include Jack Williams in your horizontal sort. He outplayed Usama Young when they were together @ Kent, and just blew up his Pro Day (must be something in the water up there in Kent, Young did the same last year). When it comes to picking in the late 4th round, I would think that the Pats would have to consider him. He could be a nickle/ dime back from day one.

He was left off inadvertently (along with Molden). They'll be on the second version. Williams in particular looks like a great tackling CB, which is probably the most important attribute.
