To an extent we are soft but I always thought we were devoid of talent (excluding Cam Jordan, Rankins & St. Nick Fairley) & not enough play makers/game changers ...Reddick, Foster, Allen, McCaffrey, Hooker, Howard or Lattimore could be on the board.

Pick #11 will be golden.

I think we've been a slow team, especially at the LB position. It's like you said, the overall athleticism is lacking. That's what has been scaring me about Derek Barnett as of late. I was content with him at 11 until I started thinking about how accomplished Hau'oli Kikiha was as a pass rusher in college, and I'm not sold on Kikiha at the moment. Marshon Lattimore or Reuben Foster at 11 and we have to take Sidney Jones.

If Sidney ever really recovers then yes.

He'll be playing by October. I urge everybody to go watch his tape, then go watch Marcus Peters.

I honestly wouldn't worry about him recovering myself.
Medicine has taken so many steps forwards that players recover more ofte than not from injuries that 20 years back would leave them hanging up their cleats

The point is we cannot have an injured player taking up a place on the roster when we need to come out of the chute winning games. We need players that can produce on day one.

I think we should double up on corner and everybody should just trust me when it comes to Sidney Jones because I've never steered any of you wrong in life and I only have your best interest at heart.
