Nice to see Casey Hayward do well. He's one of my favorite CB prospects in the 2nd/3rd round range. Earlier in the year I actually had him ranked in my top 15 but he fell off a bit.
Stephon Gilmore is one of the more physically explosive players I've seen at CB. It's too bad he's so raw in coverage. I'd take him in the 3rd convert him to FS and not look back.
I'm still wondering how people have Janoris Jenkins as a first round pick. Undersized with a mediocre, at best, showing at the combine with questionable work ethic and character concerns up the ass. No thanks.
Really disappointed that two of my favorite CB prospects, Minnifield and Boykin, didn't run. Can't wait to see them at their pro days.

After Gilmore's great showing today I'd take him off my draft board. I don't think he's worth the 1st rounder, but there's no way he's there in the 2nd.
Jenkins could be there, but ONLY because of all his red flags. How much money does the 30th pick get? Maybe a lower salary than he was expecting most of his college career would humble him. Wishful thinking???
Morris & Dre' are as good as gone. That leaves... who.... Hosley in the 2nd maybe?
Also does Cliff Harris even get drafted now? Maybe in the 6th or 7th?
Bingo you beat me to it...
Clyde how is Jenkins' performance at the combine mediocre? He probably had a better showing than any of the big name CBs except Gilmore.
Also I wouldn't call him undersized.; he's 5'10, but 32 inch arms are pretty long for his height. Compare that to Hosley's arms at the same height whose measurement came in 1/8 inch short of 31.
His 20 yard shuttle and 3-cone were underwhelming. He had a horrible vertical. And running a high 4.4 when you're 185 lbs. isn't particularly impressive.
Clyde, compare his measurbles to other corners that were drafted in years past within the first roun. You'll be surprised to see that he compares favorably to those guys. With the exception to the monsters like Champ Bailey, DeAngelo Hall, and Peterson, Jenkins' numbers is not "underwhelming" to the rest of the corners who went in the first round.
Sick / Clyce,
Janoris Jenkins = Carl Nicks of 2012. When it's all said and done, we're going to kick ourselves in the a$$ for passing up on a player who will probably be the best player in the league at his respective position.
And which of those CBs that went in the first round have as much baggage as Jenkins?
