Draft him in the 7th round, and keep him on I.R. for a year.
Daniel Jeremiah just unveiled his latest Mock Draft and he had Ohio State's Gareon Conley going 10th overall to the Bills and LSU's Tre'Davious White to us at 14. While I have sung the praises of both during the college season, I disagree that either guy is worth a top 15 pick. DJ's the pro and I am not though, but while I like both players, I see both as late 1st or early 2nd type guys. Either player in the top 15 seems like need "forced" type picks instead of looking at BPA. I continue to think if we want Corner in Rd 1 we should trade down to take one as I'm not sure there's a Corner outside of Lattimore worth a top 20 pick. Again I'm not a pro and DJ is ... so I'm probably wrong
Cornerbacks always jump up this time of year. You know that, Rey. Stephon Gilmore for example.Daniel Jeremiah just unveiled his latest Mock Draft and he had Ohio State's Gareon Conley going 10th overall to the Bills and LSU's Tre'Davious White to us at 14.

Conley is a solid Corner, but he also played on the other side of the top Corner in college football as well as the best Safety duo in the country. Daniel Jeremiah who knows tons more than I do about rating prospects seems to think he's worth the 10th pick in the draft. So I guess if we take him at 14 it may not be the biggest reach. I feel there is better "value" at pick 14. It's a very deep Corner Draft ... imo you will see players at our pick in Rd 2 who are not much of a drop off from Conley and there are good Corners available well into the mid rounds.
