Were you totally sold on Waynes yesterday? Or are you basing your love on his 40 time? There are legit questions about his fluidity.

I was totally sold on Waynes when I was watching Darqueze Dennard last year, and Waynes was clearly the better CB IMO. From yesterday:

Waynes is legit. He's not a perfect prospect, but he's still a great one. He was the only player left I really, really liked. Some will say Danny Shelton should be the guy, but I think he's overrated.

Glad PJ Williams had a bad 40 time. I like him.

Good to see there was some love prior to the 40 What do you mean only player left?
Do you mean if Cooper, White and Parker are off the board?

We both see it the same way.

Might be the best man cover corner in the entire draft, outstanding instincts.

I love Johnson. My number two right now.

I mean the only player left whom I would love to take at 15. White's combine his top-10 status, and I'm not extremely enamoured of Parker (though he's pretty good).

Maybe Eddie Goldman, but he got b***h slapped by Oregon's OL, so I'm still not 100% sure about him. The man can play DT, but I don't know if he's the right fit for a 3-4.

My favourite scenario is actually a monumental trade up for Leonard Williams.

Just a bit of caution on Waynes. The 4.31 time is ridiculous, and shows he has crazy straight line speed. However, shuttle time was horrible and 3 cone middle of pack. A 7.08 is not a good 3 cone at all.

3 cone says more to me about a CB than 40 time, easily.




3-Cone Times

Jalen Collins 6.77
Byron Jones 6.78
Kevin Johnson 6.79

---------------------------------------

Trae Waynes 7.06
Marcus Peters 7.08
P.J. Williams 7.08

Bryon Jones & Jalen Collins looking good during the combine

Had Byron Jones in my pre-combine mock as my 6th RD pick, he may now go 3rd - 4th RD. Could see Baalke going after either Collins (probably RD 1 lock now)) or Jones .
CB is such a risky position to draft early. I'd rather have 2 CB in the 4th and 5th than 1 in the first 3 rounds. Loved Acker and Reaser where we went after them. Justin Gilbert, Dennard, Milliner...can't miss prospects that are having a hard time getting on the field. DJ Hayden, Prior...it's just a hard position to get right. Verrett looks good but from an odds standpoint, he is 1 of 6 who played to their value. Let's avoid this potential land mine.

I feel the same way, particularly given Baalke's track record finding guys late.
