Haven't Mayock and the others been saying that all the QBs were a 2nd round talent at best?

Actually Mitchell Trubiskey had been rated a mid round pick (No. 10 ~ No. 22)...

Deshaun Watson and Deshone Kizer were among the more divisive among scouts with a wide variance of grades, some as late as the third round...

Personally, I think Watson benefited from having some great receivers who bailed him out as I just don't think he was properly schooled in read progression -

he just looked like he really didn't have a plan and would just chuck it out there...

I actually expected Davis Webb to sneak into the back of the first round the way things were going...

Webb very much reminds me of our very own Drew Brees, in that mould, and I wouldn't be surprised if Payton feels compelled to reach for him...

If we pick and Malik McDowell AND Chidobe Awuzie are still there at No. 42, that'd be a real tough call...

McDowell has top five talent, is a virtual clone of Cam Jordan, and I'm not sold on this whole cloud of bad attitude thing...

Malik McDowell just needs some trusted coaching and guidance and we've got the defensive coaches and vets to do it...

Personally, I like Awuzie as much, if not more, than Lattimore and wouldn't have a problem taking Chidobe either...

And yes, even though I really, really felt we already have two terrific CBs already on the roster...
