    It could be worse. Remember we had Ryan Mouton

    After having corners who didn't seem to know they are supposed to be keeping the football out of the opposing teams WRs hands, just watching his highlights is refreshing. He seems to find the ball and plays it well. He has the speed to make up ground even if he gets fooled.

    As far as KR/PR, I was questioning if they'd throw him out there to return and play CB, but after watching him with the ball in his hands on returns and INTs, there's no way they don't let him get the ball in his hands. Let him focus on returns and CB, but later in the season I could see some gadget plays with him at WR or RB.

    Good old UK internet let me down at 2am so didn't get to see Adoree get called.

    Exciting pick from the skillset and potential side of things and will thrive with LeBeau but I just wish Howard and Foster wouldn't have still been on the board at this point to cloud matters.

    Lets hope LB gets taken care of later today.

    They were. Howard went 19 and Foster went 31.

    Great pick. Wasn't my top cb, but he was my #4. I had latt, conley and king higher. But, king is still there. I would have really liked to gain a pick with adoree, but i still like it. We addressed our 2 biggest issues already, now onto bpa from here on out. I wonder if we'll move into the 2nd or just wait it out.

    Adoree's gonna give us the electricity I was hoping we'd get with Ramsey last year.

    He said "wouldn't have been there". He is indicating if they were gone, the Jackson choice would be easier to accept.

    I liked others as CB better, but I like him as a dynamic player.

    He'll get burned some, but that's fine because we can score points. He'll make great, game-changing plays too. ...and he should get better over the next few years.

    I didn't look into him much. He may seem like a reach based on where he was projected to go, but he has a lot of traits of a top 10 pick and a gamechanging player.

    His return ability is some of the best I've seen in a while, and while it's difficult to dig up defensive highlights , I do see toughness and ball skills which leads me to believe he'll be good on the defensive side of the ball.

    I'm seriously wondering if he could have a Tyreek Hill type of impact on offense. He's really that good and that dangerous with the ball in his hands.
