So projections and grades be damned!

Why Haden?
I admit that when I watched Florida games, I wasn't paying attention to him, I was trying to keep track of Spikes. I then read that he shut down a bunch of good WRs and went around the net to catch his highlights. What I didn't like was that I didn't see a lot of bump and run. If I'm going to spend a top 5 pick on a corner, I'd like a player who can line up on the LOS and prevent the WR from getting into his route. Haden looked pretty good playing of the LOS in both man and zone and he was good in run, I was just hoping for some more physical play at the LOS.
I do agree with your take that people become fixated on certain players, and blind as to others. The team should improve with just about any of the top 30 projected players.
