Beware of "tweeners," "combine warriors," "takes plays off," and "inconsistent hands." NFL = Not For Long.

DONTE JACKSON, CORNERBACK, LSU

Watch a team "reach" for him because of his track speed.

Yeah but you can make a living with speed. You can't coach it and Prime Time didn't tackle - 'business decisions', lol.

Sanders was already a freak of nature coming out of college. Elite cover skills, elite awareness. He runs a 4.2 40 in church shoes. Deion & Darrell Green's of the world are rare.

Saw a lot of Donte last year in Baton Rouge. He doesn't have the instincts ... yet. I wish him well at the next level.

I’ve seen some analysts saying that Uchenna Nwosu would benefit greatly from moving to WLB in a 4-3. That’s a pretty intriguing option if he’s there in the 3rd round.

IMO Nwosu is highly underrated. His ability to anticipate what QB's are doing is nice. Acceleration off the edge is equally as impressive. Is he a stand up guy or hands in the dirt type player?

I believe that Jeff Ireland knows who is a poser.......I'm not worried about drafting anymore. I'm actually excited!
