I would certainly consider a WR with the first pick Sac, I don't disagree on that. I just think there is great value in that position later on in the draft with guys like Jared Abbrederis, T.J. Jones, Donte Moncrief, Josh Huff, Ryan Grant, and so forth. I don't think this is a draft you have to spend a round one pick on a WR in to get some really good talent. Don't get me wrong, I like Odell Beckham a bunch. I like Jordan Matthews a bunch. If you asked me who the best WR in the entire draft was, I'd tell you Abbrederis. Problem is he has a little history with concussions and it is scary to think he could be Anthony Gonzalez part two.
Defensive back is not an area where I think there is depth in this draft. I think there is talent to be had in rounds one and two, but then there is a severe drop off. I think there will be more late round (6 and 7) gems than there will be any quality in the mid rounds. I'd take chances late on guys like Brock Vereen (FS-Minnesota) and Travis Carrie (CB-Ohio), but I wouldn't go out of my way to take a mid-round player there. Fuller is a guy that is gaining alot of praise. In fact, after posting this I read that Mike Mayock is considering him a first round lock, which is decent praise. As a note on the argument against the size of Fuller, consider the best CB to ever play in Sutton's defense, Darelle Revis. He's a guy that came in the league at 5'11-1/2" and 204 pounds with 32-3/8" arm length and 9-3/8" hands. At his pro day he ran a 4.38, had a 6.56 3-cone, had a 38" vertical, 125" broad jump, and a 4.08 20-yard shuttle. Comparatively, Fuller comes in at 6'0" 190 lbs with 32-7/8" arms, and 9-3/8" hands, ran a 4.49, had a 6.90 3-cone, had a 38.5" vertical, 128" broad jump, and 4.19 20-yard shuttle. So, aside from Revis being slightly faster, Fuller has the same physical attributes as Revis and could still run faster at his pro day. |

Also, Fuller will never be on the same level as Revis. Not that you said he necessarily would, but I would even bother to mention them in the same sentence. |
