To answer the question. Its hard to say he's better than Revis and DRC. Also, Prince, not Prine.
If he as good as advertised, he won't be there at 9.
Personally I think he is a better corner than Patrick Peterson.
And speaking of Haden, Janoris always seemed like the better corner at UF when they played together.
His style is comparable to Haden as he's a coverage guy, but his skillset and athletic ability move him into the middle of that pack.
Not too sure about that. I believe Claiborne and Janoris are the top two CBs (Jenkins could have been the top CB taken if it wasn't for his past).
To each his own. Like I said there are some really good CBs in this draft. I just think Kirkpatrick is above him with his size and his tackling ability.
Agreed and there is a reason that the Panthers have not interviewed any CBs. Its cause they dont want to show there hand on who they like the most. Either that or they are happy with Capt. and I hope thats not the case...
Yea, it's doubtful that Claiborne falls to them. There really isn't another CB worth taking at 9, so they would most likely target one in the second round. Either that or they like Hogan to be the starter...
Kirkpatrick in my mind is just as good of a prospect as Claiborn. I could def see us drafting him at the 9 spot even before the idea of Claiborne falling to us came up.
On topic, I think he's a better cover guy than Peterson(coming out of college). Think he's similar to Haden the most coming out of College.
If they didn't wanna show who they like most they would more likely interview everyone.
Or none at all...
Would make more sense to interview everyone so you get info instead of drafting without any.
Kirk is more Malcolm and janoris is more Haden IMO.
If not for off field issues, I'd take janoris over Claiborne.
