Kareem Jackson & Mark Barron have looked up to draft status. Kirkpatrick hasn't seen much time just for injury.


I still don't think much of Jackson. He's gotten better but he has always struggled against the QB's who actually know what they are doing. I guess you could say the same thing for the rest of that Houston secondary though. Barron made a few highlight reels this year with some hard hits.

I liked the way Marquis Johnson looked in camp too. Injuries have been the only thing holding him back even as a 7th rder

Charlie Peprah has stuck for a 5th Rd pick



agreed.

What are the busts?


no busts in my opinion but Jackson is the weak link of the bunch. Kirkpatrick was worthy his draft spot though IMO.

I wouldn't be thrilled about Milliner myself. I mean he could probably tackle better than some of the guys we have back there now but his coverage skills aren't anything to fap about.

Most prolly say Milliner just cuz he's the top DB on most draft boards. Again, still way early to get too precise in evaluations.

Currently at #15, each win or loss from here prolly will be one or two spots up or down. So still #10-20 possibilities. There's world of difference who you're looking at then. Under #12 and one of the premier pass rushers could be on deck. At #20 a CB could be BPA. Even Banks or Rhodes if not Milliner. Greer will be 31 next year.

I'm not advocating it at all. Just that the board could fall where it wouldn't be a shocker.

One thing about picking sooner is that the field does get much more defined versus the #24 to 89 first picks of the past 3 seasons.
