I would think that safety or DB's in general would be one of the least of our worries. OL, WR, and TE seem to me to be more lacking. Between Ceedy Duce and Marcus Williams it would be hard to get enough playing time to warrant the first round pick for that position wouldn't you think? And Malcolm Jenkins and PJ Williams are still options, as well.

Drafting him and not breaking the bank for Williams would be a possibility. Might allow a free agent signings somewhere else. Possibly even to go after a quarterback. Although I like Jameis.

Possibly. I just couldn't see passing him up if he's there, could be a good problem to have. I like Winston also.

I really hope you don't think Malcolm Jenkins is really a FS. Some might say he's getting long in the tooth as an excuse but in reality he's never really been a FS, if you want a 50 burger put on you , just put him in the deep and watch. Not his forte!!

Just saying Jenkins played about 98% of all the defensive snaps over this season and is a defensive captain. 100% of the snaps over the final 15 games, in fact. I'd say he has value.

Questions our scouts need to be asking ...

Can he develop (played against lower-level competition)?

Can he be coached up?

Mid-round draft selection perhaps?

This is concerning, but in line with other stuff I have read and heard.
