I was going to post a similar thread. Most of our picks are guys that can move. We're really going for athletes this year with speed and quickness, but for the most part they all have good size too. I'm really excited about this class.

Yeah, I've noticed that trend.

Garrett might take Belichick's crown for the 3 Cone King.

Our defense lacked speed and quickness. Glad to see we attempted to improve on that. Hopefully with the additions of Claiborne and Carr, our coverage holds up and it improves the pass rush.

Did any of our OL players who we drafted have good cone numbers? Oops, we didn't draft any OL players.

Now if we can get them to play some great football we might have something.

Seems to follow the FA signings we went after also.

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.
