Why not? You can never have too many good CB's in the new NFL IMO. So what's your take on Haden.
First of all, I don't think he's that good.
And secondly, we have much greater needs than CB. I think our CB's are fine for now, we don't need to spend a 1st round pick on one, especially one as unspectacular as Haden.
I agree we don't need to take a CB in the 1st. But our corners are not fine. They're slow and old as dirt. I'd like to see us take one in the 2nd or 3rd. Kareem Jackson, Brandon Ghee, Dominique Franks, Devin McCourty - lots of good corners this year. Patrick Robinson and Kyle Wilson are too early at 17 and probablly won't be there at 49. We should be able to get a young corner though.
Totally agree with you there, I would hope we take a corner in the 2nd or 3rd.
I just don't think we should spend a top pick on one, especially Haden, when we have more important needs.
None more important than a long-term starter at CB. Unless taking a part-time RB/KR is more important.
Lets remember what did us in last year folks! 3 and out,3 and out,3 and out! Spiller and Williams is what the doctor ordered,use Spiller for punts,kickoffs,slot,backfield etc,Williams gives Alex more time to pass,rest of draft is all defense from 2nd rd on! Makes too much sense fellas...
