If Bunkley is off the board, I'm all for it.

Hill ran a 4.30 at the combine I believe. When was the last time we had a corner with that kind of speed?

Carter?

And I'm all for it. I know Gabe Watson gets a lot of love around here, but if both of these guys are still on the board, I'd feel better getting Tye Hill.

Sure Why not

[CoMoChief]

If he's on the board then we have to take him. We can still get a quality DT in the 2nd round. I'd say we can still snag the 3rd-4th best DT in the draft at that 2nd round pick.

maybe ... he fast and quick

his change of direction is better than anyone we have on the roster right now.

several guys might be there at #20 for us imo

tye hill
micheal huff
tamba hali
manny lawson
brodrick bunkley

He's tiny and can't play zone to save his life. I think we'd have better options.

No way Michael Huff is there at 20. I know alot of people said the same about DJ last season, but this guy is top 10. He has Troy Polamalu speed, maybe even better.

maybe ...


if some team wants him for a cornerback then he is prolly gone.

but if teams look at him as a safety he very well could fall.


usually safeties,linebackers,Guards,Tightends tend to fall at little further than they are ranked.

Kiper is a know-nothing, snapper-headed, Count Chocula loking, overhyped sheep humper.

Whenever I see him talk it's like he just snorted a line of cocaine off Chris Berman's ass.

If he can't play zone than no thanks. I would rather go for a DT than a CB.

speed helps obviously, but there is a lot more to playing CB.
