I doubt they go Safety in round 1 but if they did, he could be a consideration. Wont be there round 2 unless he runs poorly at the combine.

No surprise here. He's been planning on entering all season. I've read the Cowboys have some interest in him, but I hope not because we have more pressing needs than Safety in the first round. Besides, Kenny Vacarro is the best Safety prospect in the draft and I don't see him going as high as #18. I could see the Patriots picking up Reid at the end of the 1st.

Dallas needs to stay away from Reid. If he drops to the fourth round I would draft him but he is not worth it between rounds 1-3.

Reid is a stud and considering how bad our safety problem is i don't mind taking him in the second even though its sort of a reach there. Vaccaro is overrated to me and Reid is the better athlete.

If Elam decides to come out he is worth a first round pick if you ask me, he reminds me of a more ball hawking mark Barron.

I don't know if he will last till the 4th round.

But I have heard from many different people that his weakness is vs the pass and that is not what this team needs at Safety.

You can see a lot more of how a player is doing on TAPE than in person so I don't care if you attended LSU games.

And I never said drafting a safety is moree important than drafting dline or oline, did I?

Your statement of us not touching him until the 4th round was a little "out there", thus the

I like Reid but Vacarro would be my first choice if we went safety.

Players submit their names to NFL advisory boards to determine what their draft status would be. I doubt many healthly players would go to the draft knowing they were 4th round prospects.

I think he goes late 1st or early 2nd.

Really I dont care what you think either. It's obvious you didnt see any of his games because if you did you would be rolling eyes towards yourself. The bottom line is he overhyped and would not help with the pass defense. I will say this again I would not touch him unless he fell to the fourth round. Reid is overrated. Now roll your eyes again like a child.

Think I saw on ESPN scroll bar that McShay or Kiper have him as the #42 rated prospect in the draft thus far.

I don't follow enough college football to say if that's inaccurate but if that's relatively close, I'm not sure anyone could justify a 1st round pick on that when there are multiple positions that could be addressed and undoubtedly a higher rated player on the board.
