Well put. I like Flowers as a potential second round pick as well. He is not in the same class as these corners, is probably better at zone coverage, and doesnt have the timed speed but he has been a stalwart on a great Hokies defense the past 2 seasons. 31 pass break ups in two seasons shows he can cover. Cason, Porter, and Lee are others I like in the 2nd.
