Interesting about that 2008 draft that Talib was in.
Supposedly very deep at corner, and Dallas was pretty much definitely taking one early (in addition to the "wow" pick Jerry stood up and vowed to add).
Had two firsts.
Leodis McKelvin
Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie
Aquib Talib
Mike Jenkins
Antoine Cason
Brandon Flowers
Tracy Porter
Talib ended up being the best of all those guys. None of them completely busted but all were disappointing to a degree.
Flowers was ok for a bit. DRC was a journeyman. Porter made a play in front of the world.
Another interesting note was that Dallas selected Orlando Scandrick and KC selected Brandon Carr in the 5th round.
All the teams that took a 1st round corner swore they had the spot covered for a decade. Keep in mind for when we debate 1st round capital.
