Our CB's got abused last year. Remember Welker owning Flowers deep last year at Arrowhead? Remember Hopkins owning Smith at Arrowhead last year? Hell do you remember Flowers getting owned vs Jacoby Ford in Oakland a few years ago because he was too slow?

Yes we need safety help, but it won't help if these teams use the 4 WR sets they did before. It's impossible for safeties to cover all 4 consistently. At some point you need the CB's to do their jobs.

Every situation you just described can be attributed to no safety help. Without knowing the coverage, it's impossible to evaluate corner play, for the most part.

It's not impossible when teams go 4 wide. At all. With proper play recognition, paired with knowledge of high used route combinations, it's not.

By the time we got to the chargers a broncos, we had already changed our defensive scheme in terms of coverage to compensate for teams killing our safeties.

The biggest problem against the broncos we had wasn't guys getting burned consistently, it was that we didn't tackle worth a shit once they caught it.

All three are far better players than any of the CBs not named Justin Gilbert or Darqueze Dennard

I agree.

I agree that we need to address tour D with our first pick...but this wouldn't have been my pick.

For that matter, I don't think a rookie cb is going to help much next year against the broncos or chargers either

I would love Cooks, but I feel like Reid has some other guys in mind later on that he thinks will be productive.

Either way, I think it's WR or CB at 23.

It's still a month away, I don't know that they have much f an idea yet

I don't think you go in thinking its gotta be a certain position.

With this draft, get your 5 or 6 you love and just sit and see what happens

Another guy they could take is Phillip Gaines in rd 3. He's got that speed and he's got some room to grow.
But then again, guys like that don't last long. Wouldn't be surprised if he's gone.

Guys like Gaines, Desir, etc will likely be around later too.

There's some real sleepers at CB in this draft, which is why unless Dennard falls, I'd wait

One of the top 3 CBs fall? Sure. If not....****ing take Cooks.

Go pass rusher in the 1st, CB in the 3rd.

Andy has the ability of making a mid-late rnd WR into a stud.

There are going to be amazing talents at WR in the middle rounds.

Why do you guys love Cooks so much? I mean he is ok, but its not like he is that much better.

This is what people have been saying about WR for months.
