He'd make a pretty awesome nickel. 

We need a starter and after Captain I never want to see another little person pretending to be an NFL CB.

I feel for the guy. It's not fair but he is 5'9" and as far as I know no one makes platform cleats for the NFL.

 

Edit: 5'8" hell no. 6' plus or bust baby. This isn't the NCAA.

Other teams have Amik in the 40s, don't sleep on it.

But 5'8 in the league of giants.. We don't have a big Cb on the roster either.. Is getting a nickle CB more important then a outside CB??

Yeah that's just our division 6 games a year.. And we're talking about a nickle back???.   Oh and I forgot a refreshed  Gronk!!!  Yeah losing Bradberry may be the biggest lost this offseason... 

Get Logan Ryan on the phone..

Arbitrary lines in the sand are how you end up missing out on the Steve Smiths, Tyrann Mathieus, Maurice Jones-Drews, etc.

Good point... I see being small might help in offensive situations and playing in space on defense... But head to head 1 on 1 is a different story..

True but are those guys not the exception and not the rule? 

Plus we already have Jackson for our nickle spot. He isn't an outside CB, maybe one day but that isn't looking great.

There are all kinds of exceptions to the rules out there. Just look at most first round busts to see the flipside of that coin. Guys that checked just about every box but somehow still didn't translate. It's why scouting players will always be more art than science.

You’re wanting to draft like we’re going to be competitive this season or even next. 
 

If they have Amik ranked higher you take him and look to fill outside CB another time.

I get what you are saying but A) you expect Hurney to find that exception and B) isn't there other options that fill massive needs with better odds?

Look if we were a 12-4 team with a good roster then I wouldn't mind a swing for a homerun. Let's just get on base at this point.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By panfanman · Posted

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
