Patrick Robinson will get his chance to start, he was the starter before he was injured in the preseason...

White will compete with him for that spot and they draft one in the mid rounds for depth

Hated seeing Greer go. I know he's a toss up on if he can play at the same level but I really hope he finds his way back. He was always solid.

I would like to see P-Rob play a year for Ryan before discarding him given he is healthy. He has all the talent in the world, he just needs to put everything together. White is an intriguing player too.

I would like to see Walt Aikens taken in the 5th round. He is in the mold of the modern day corner…….6'1" 205 lbs., 4.4-4.5 40 and aggressive at the point of attack. He is very athletic and can play jump ball with the best WRs as he was a point guard at Illinois before transferring to FCS (Liberty University).

Yeah I don't think we'll go with a rookie CB.

Why not, if a rookie cb shows he can adapt to the defense quickly then he should start......

Its not that simple. CB's have a lot to grasp.

I like the idea of a vet coming and being our #1 or 2 CB and a rookie coming in in nickel situations and rotating in giving them time to develop.

So CBs have more to grasp than Safety's? (Vaccaro)

No, but it is the hardest position on the field outside of QB.
