7th rounders are basically throwaways. However, there is some potential here as he has limited time at DB and could be a late bloomer. Keeping an eye on him.

Yep...great measurable but raw due to the switch from wr.  I expect to see him on the PS

Not the FIU guy I wanted, but he'll suffice. 

Didn't Morgan go 4th round----before Fromm?

We had some names to sign tonight---a few were qbs, I think.

Everyone in the 7th is going to have some kind of significant flaw. I'd rather it be that they are still raw and fully learning the position but have all the physical tools and athleticism to translate to NFL. He can develop on either the practice squad or maybe even the 53 since we're a bit light on talent and have him spend most of his time on special teams his rookie year.

Yes-he has a lot to learn---he has the skills and gifts, so we can use him to gauge how good this staff is.  These WRs turned CBs know how to think like a WR--they know what WRs are taught--if he gets if figured out, he could be good.  With expanded rosters and special teams, who knows?

Yep and not too long after Eason.  I remember when I started mocking Morgan people thought he was some no-name joke.  Again, had he made it to the 5th round, I would have no zero complaints about drafting him.  We simply had way too many holes to fill to take a project QB before then, even one with the potential like Morgan.

We needed tons of help on defense and that's what we drafted. 

[WOW!!]

Camp body? 

So, not a single offensive player drafted this year. I guess the answer is on the roster (or free agency).

Most of the free agency money went to the offensive side of the ball..
