The only draft analyst I pay any attention to is Mike Manock, and he had Cyrus Jones ranked as the 41st best prospect in the draft, and we got him at 60, good value. I watched him at Alabama, and I love the pick, he was probably my primary draft binky. He isn't real tall but he is very solidly built and absolutely tough as nails. Fantastic tackler, and absolutely top notch run defender. A converted receiver, great ball skills. Great heart, and always wanted to take on the opponents best receiver. Defensive MVP in the semifinal Championship game against Michigan State. A real leader on the 2015 National Championship Alabama team. Love, love, love the pick.

That 4th is next year. So we get to live it again a little bit a year from now again.
Not Ryan?He's going to compete for time in the slot from day one. If he's the type of corner the Pats were looking at, they must feel good about Roberts, Ryan, or Coleman on the outside. Out of the three, I'm guessing it's either Roberts or Coleman.
Cy Jones: another small CB, a 4th-round talent, over-drafted by Bill as a favor to his oldest buddy.
The amount of real talent bypassed is simultaneously staggering and sickening.
I like this pick, but the highlights are mostly of him returning kicks, not in coverage.
He is tough and feisty and, very important, he has good hands. Hands on a CB are very important; it make it risky to throw against him. Once he gets his hands on the ball, he is a threat to go all the way. Even if he occasionally gets beat, his hands can turn around a game, as we, ahem, know oh so well.

Hightower is our only other highly drafted Bama player. Bill isn't doing Nick favors; if anything it appears Nick steers Bill away from the many Bama busts.Cy Jones: another small CB, a 4th-round talent, over-drafted by Bill as a favor to his oldest buddy.

Cyrus Jones 1810 to 1913
Made his great granchildren believe
You could live to a hundred and three
A hundred and three is forever when you're just a little kid
So Cyrus Jones lived forever
