BB was on a run of 2nd round DBs around those years that will be difficult to someone replicate that ever (not on a positive meaning, I mean)

Ya. It feels like there's more holes now than there should be at this point.
You're absolutely correct.. Cyrus Jones and Duke Dawson.. Just crazy how many 1st and 2nd round bust.. Darius butler was another high rounder in 2010 but he ended up have a great career when he left NE..
Is why I'm inclined to believe it was likely requested.. I know one thing the team has sure added more pressure on them to strength the depth this draft. Will be interesting...
That 2019 class had to have been Bill's worst. Basically one decent season out of Damien Harris and one good season from a punter. The rest of that class hardly even saw the field.
That Cole Strange Draft was pretty brutal too: thank goodness for Marcus Jones and that knuckle head Jack Jones.
JoeJuan Williams, Duke Dawson, Cyrus Jones, Jordan Richards, Tavon Wilson, Ras-I Dowling, Darius Butler, and Terrence Wheatley. Uncanny to have that many flat-out busts in the same round at the same general position. I think the only second-round DBs who worked out were Chung (who had to leave and come back before they figured out how to use him) and Eugene Wilson, who from what I remember was a college corner and got moved to safety.
That one gives 2019 a run for its money. That Strange pick was the culmination of so much roster mismanagement.
Don't remind me could have had Brock Purdy and Romeo Doubs that same year. BB upped his blunders by taking Tyquan Thornton over G Pickens and Alec Pierce. But DaPrunes would say I'm being unreasonable to his Idol.
Tavai at least was a regular contributor. Mapu never really found a role.
Absolutely.. for example I Harry had more of an attitude and entitlement probably more so than his abilities.. I remember hearing about him arguing with coaches during camp. He showed some flashes but just never really bought in.
Yes.. Eugene Wilson was a Safety here next to Hot rod for a bit.. solid player.. but yes to your point all the DB bust has to be a franchise record. It must be? Tavon Austin was a Safety as well?
And being often injured as well never can help a player if you're off the field more than on it.m
I hear you twin..but on Purdy seems the book is out on him.. give Drake his weapons during that superbowl game I bet you a future mass cash winning ticket Drake would have won that SB..
And Maye is Potentially a Great QB surrounded by JAGS. I'll take Purdy's situation 24/7.
