Doesn’t really excite me, but there’s something to be said for Steady Freddy types

I disagree with that assessment.

He’s got great ball skills, instincts, and has the versatility to line up anywhere This is truly a great pick.

Mathieu and Thornhill are locked up for years. Safety is addressed, for under $18m. That’s less $$ than we were gonna give Justin Houston. Both those guys seem to have good football attitudes too

“Above average” is what we need on this defense, we sorely lacked that last year

Yeah, it’s not that I’m down on him... just not overwhelmed is all

It’s nice that he can play some corner though, versatility never goes out of style

:whackit:

After Watts last year and Thornhill this year, I think Veach has a very good eye for playmaking safeties.

Nice analysis by PFF from a few days ago. They talk about all 3 safeties taken by AFC West teams.

Veach has said Thornhill will be the FS

That's what I see. Great instincts with excellent thumping effect in both defending the pass and especially the run game.

Can you imagine IF we could get back to the Deron Cherry/Kevin Ross/Albert Lewis days? :drool:

I like this pick too. Dude played a bunch of corner as well and should match up well vs te’s.

MAHOMO 4 LIFE! 04-27-2019 11:12 AM

I wanted this dude in the first!

He looks like he has great football instincts and a nose for the ball. You can't coach that. The exact opposite of the secondary players we have had on the roster with zero football awareness.

Hard to watch his highlights and not be excited. Looks like the total package.

Reminds me of Deron Cherry.

I just posted that he reminds me of Cherry, then scrolled up and saw this post.

You nailed it!

First thing that came to my thoughts. This is Sorensen's replacement.

Except it’s not. Reid basically said so
