I wish these two had declared for the draft instead of returning to college.

There just aren't enough quality CB's in the draft. This will likely run up the cost of CB fA's too.

This is the position I am most worried about and the way the players are ranked I am afraid we are going to miss out on a starting caliber CB in the draft.

I can see Apple and Kendall fuller being pushed into the 1st rd and I can see William Jackson III and Redmond pushed into the 2nd.

When we pick at 34 there might be a 1st rd talent sitting there like a Jaylon Smith or Sua Cravens. If we go that route we will likely miss our shot at a starting caliber CB.

Actually I think is quite a decent draft for CBs, especially some interesting value guys who slipped. You might see a guy like Keivarie Russell in the 3rd, who was some said after his sophomore year might be a 1st round guy when all was said and done. But he got busted for cheating, sat out a year and took some time to get his legs back under him (then got hurt) this past season.

I'm personally happy King is back at Iowa for another year. :)

I guess you are right. He was one of the earlier ones to declare.

You could add LeShaun Sims and Bennett Okotcha. Both seem to be getting some buzz lately.

One of the first things I look for when scouting a guy that I have never heard of before is....what kind of pics does he have on google?

I see a lot of missed tackles.....and getting beat in coverage....

kind of Wilcoxish

Could probably post 6 more pictures showing him get beat...so you get the picture.

But how many of them can be day 1 starters? 5 or 6 would be my guess and that might be pushing it.
