To all who don't like the Anthony pick at 31:

What have we needed for years? An athletic, speedy linebacker who can cover.

Anthony IS that player. More so than Perryman.

And I'd rather use a high pick on a guy who's responsible for doing more than being a "space eater"....

C'mon fellas, there are a dozen 300+lb guys we can grab in later rounds. There aren't other Stephone Anthonys.

The biggest reason I would have preferred we had Taken Denzel Perryman is the Pure Tackling ability that he has watch the tape on him he don't miss tackle anyone and is a veracious tackler you watch his film when he hits you you don't go any further your down and that's it.

Keep Drew upright for 2 more seconds and EVERYONE is open.

Again, keep Drew upright and those don't happen. For another 2-3 years. And what about building a solid O line for the next guy?

Anthony has the same ability AND covers better. You'll warm up to him quickly.

I can't speak about perryman's game, meaning minus what you said here, but Lofton was the same type of tackler, he just blew in coverage, badly
