I think you are hoping for Ryan Shazier...I don't know if Thompson is that guy. I'd rather go Cody Prewitt vs. a guy like Thompson who doesn't really have experience at the position.
And I too think that Vince Mayle is a ****ing beast. I think he's better than WV's Kevin White right now. I also think that he might be there in the third. Personally, I think that they will have a really good opportunity to snag a pretty solid WR in the third - Dres Anderson, Vince Mayle, Tyler Lockett, Ty Montgomery all would be monumental upgrades and all would fit well in this system in different ways.

Shaqs a strange pick no doubt
Berry played a role incredibly similar to a 4-3 OLB in 2013. playing in the box, playing man on TEs and backs, covering the flats, blitzing. I think shaq could be even better than berry in that role. I think shaqs just as athletic as shazier. Shazier might have a little more top end speed, buts that's it. In terms of agility, stopping, starting I think Thompson has the edge. Shaq can transition from a backpeddle to a driving forward as well as an elite corner prospect. I think his short area quickness is on par with shazier as well, his closing speed is insane. I think he'll develop some serious man coverage skills due to his agility and drive.
As far as Prewitt goes, I just don't see what you see in the guy.
But I do agree with you on wrs in the third. There will almost certainly be a solid guy there for the taking.
