Who is Mock Data base I posted something from someone who actually gets paid to put up articles.

You posted an article after 1 game which is kinda funny on multiple fronts:

1. Article also mentions Carson Beck as QB 1 top 10 pick. Dude sucks. Had to transfer to Miami bc he wasnt getting drafted.

2. At the end of the day Dane Brugler had Starks ranked #19 on his big board. Not even his highest ranked safety, the kid from South Carolina ranked #17. Also Bruglar has called Caleb Downs the best Safety in all of college ball the last 2 years.

3. MockdraftDatabase is a consensus ranking from a collection of people who get paid to put up articles as you say.

At this point in his career Caleb Downs is a better safety prospect then Starks was at the same point in his career. Not saying that will hold up next year depending on the year Downs has but he's a better prospect. He can do more too.

Regardless, was there or wasn't there pre-draft hype on Starks. I responding to the OP that there wasn't any.

Also why are you going on about Downs vs Starks, no one is arguing that. I can tell you're posting with emotion because that's not my argument. Lol

Todd McShay is looking like Rob Dyrdek
Downs is more of a Sean Taylor type prospect. He's easily a Top 10 prospect in just about any draft class.

Probably because you posted twice about Starks on the 1st page and you literally said Starks is better

But why go on about it, I'm saying ball skills and coverage wise I think Starks is better. That's clearly not the point to my whole argument though. That satisfy you.

Don't see him being available at 32 when we pick unfortunately.
Starks is…..fine.

Caleb Downs is a beast. Best safety in a decade.

Top 11-15 pick. IMO

I just don't see NFL teams spending a top 10 pick for a Safety.

Depends on what teams are there.

Yeah always depends on who is available and the needs. If his stock remains as high or higher than it was going into this season then he definitely could sneak in there.

I certainly hope we're in no position to draft him...though I'd love to have him on our defense.

Apparently starks has been so bad the ravens had to go out and trade their DE for a safety. Ouch....
