He's also given up the lowest completion percentage of any of the top DBs. 1st could be an overstatement, but 3rd is way too far down. No later than top half of round 2 calibur player and more likely round 1 than not.

I like him a lot. I think he's a tough guy and he was balls in the Alabama game early in the 2013 season. However, I just don't see the footwork and turn that you are talking about. He's a strong presence against the run and does cover the short field well. He's primarily a nickel in this system.

I think he's going to be a good pro, but I don't think he's as good as what we already have in Flowers and I don't think he'll be playing press coverage on the outside in Sutton's defense where we already have Smith and Cooper.

Like I said, I'd take him in the third. No way in the first round, especially considering the receivers that will be available with the #23 pick. You don't reach on a CB when there is a potential #1 WR for a team that doesn't have anything on the roster behind Bowe, who is coming off his worst season as a pro.
