I'll have to go back and do I quick check when the dust settles in a day or two. I definitely sign off on both TEs where we grabbed them. Have to go back and check who was on the board during the other picks its been a whirlwind.I for one didn't want to see ANY DB picked in the first 3 rounds, simply because it wasn't an area of immediate need. But the fact remains that this kid's measurables are off the chart. He's an athlete as a pure athlete, Bill got a first round talent, and the price he paid is that he'll a guy that won't be an impact player in his rookie year. What he WILL be this year is a core special teamer, who will learn the ropes from 2 of the best mentors he could hope to find, in McCourty and Chung.
While my initial reaction was to hate the pick, like so many others. The reality is that we really needed young blood at the position. This kid SOUNDS like someone who could be a big times starter down the road. So I'm OK with the pick.
BTW- since I didn't listen to the draft, who were the picks people would have RATHER taken with this pick.
That's why i grade before the draft. No hindsight or have to look back at post history. All right there to look at.
