Buccaneers totally messed up royally. They wanted Claiborne and they figured they could drop from 5 to 7 and Claiborne would still be available after Jax took Blackmon and St. Louis took someone else.

The Bucs screwed the Rams by letting Jax take Blackmon then the Rams screwed the Bucs by letting Dallas take Claiborne. Lulz!

Cowboys make bold move to grab LSU's Claiborne
By Tom Orsborn


IRVING — Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones returned to his bold ways Thursday, shocking the NFL by trading up eight spots in the first round to lasso the draft's prize cornerback.

The Cowboys nabbed LSU's Morris Claiborne after trading the 14th pick and their second-round pick (No. 45 overall) to St. Louis for the sixth pick. Jones believes Claiborne can be Dallas' best corner since Hall of Famer Deion Sanders.

“He's elite, and we aren't the only ones in the league that think that,” Jones said. “You couldn't say that about too many players in this draft.

Henderson: Claiborne Sound On Technique

Watching the young man on tape, he wasn’t a guy I really thought we had a chance to go up and get,” Henderson said of Claiborne. “But studying the tape, he’s a guy I love watching. He’s so technically sound. So athletic and so passionate about the game. As a defensive backs coach, I was extremely impressed with the way he plays.”

While Carr is a four-year veteran and should be ready to step right in and contribute. Henderson said what makes Claiborne so special is that he’s already advance in terms of the teaching aspect that typically comes along with young players.

“The thing I like, when I watch him play press, and we’re going to play a lot of press man here – he is already technically sound,” said Henderson, an eight-year veteran in the NFL who spent the last coaching in Cleveland, including the first two with Rob Ryan. “When I look at most college corners, I watch the tape and say ‘Ok, he’s good here but I’ve got to fix this or fix that.’ But a lot of those things, Morris already does.

Dane Brugler of CBS Sports praises Crawford for his "strong practice habits" and sees his strengths like this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qi5CBuRZrWk

Coordinated with smooth movement skills. High effort rusher and works through the whistle. Relentless worker, fighting off blocks and battling to the ball carrier. Has strong hands and holds his own at the point of attack. Stout anchor when he plays low to the ground.

His weak points shake out like this, according to Brugler:

Not a quick-twitch player who will consistently threaten the edge. Has limited explosive qualities and lacks great initial burst or overall range for the position. Has a limited array of pass rush moves and needs to improve his technique in this area.Has only year as a starter at the FBS-level and was part of a rotation-heavy defensive front.

He started as a sophomore and was the conference?s defensive MVP, finishing with 42 tackles, 14.0 tackles for loss and 8.0 sacks, earning Junior College First Team All-American honors.
