I have to say, while I'm O.K. with this pick and the first two, the Travon Wilson pick is so horrible, it ruined this draft for me. I keep reading, 'trust BB, he knows DBs better than us', but his history on drafting DBs actually makes me feel it's less likely that he knows more than everybody else in drafting Wilson. I'm also reading 'how do you know there were any takers to trade back with that pick', but if GB took our later 2nd Rd pick for a 3rd and a 5th, they would have taken this one for it. I'd have rather gotten two picks for the first 2nd Rd pick, and BB could have very likely drafted this undrafted free agent type safety in the 3rd Round, and still have had the second 2nd round pick.
Sorry to look at the glass as half empty, but you draft a 2nd Round pick in hopes of big things from the guy, and how many here can realistically say we will hit with Travon Wilson? I highly doubt it, which means BB yet again didn't hit on a 2nd Rd pick. Amazing! I'm very bummed, and again should be feeling good about adding 4 defensive players. It could be a very good draft, but it could have been absolutely great, and it won't be now.
Final Point: I've seen several comments online that, 'well they hit on Mankins and Vollmer when most didn't agree with the picks. The difference to me is after those picks we all did some digging and it gave us alot to be happy and hopeful about. I'm trying to dig on this guy and keep finding empty pages. Really Bill, you honestly couldn't take a chance on getting some value picks and getting this guy later? Is he really such a can't miss, that you HAD to draft him this high in the 2nd round?
