Did we last year keep 2 slot corners on our 53 man roster? Or is DJ likely for the practice squad?

We kept Victor Boldin because we needed returners. Now we have both. We can't keep a backup nickel that can't play outside unless they play special teams. If DJ does well enough, Williams could be the Jeremy Kerley of this year.

K-State CB DJ Reed is a damn solid football player... 27 PBUs, 7 INTs over last two seasons. One of best press CBs I've seen in Big-12 in a long time.... Good punt/kickoff returner too

Man I didn't watch Reed during the draft Process because of his size (and what this team usually goes for at CB) but everything I've read on this kid is positive. All the draft gurus love him and flim is backing it up.

Great value here

I don't care if Hughes, Alexander and Reed don't meet the prototypical size this scheme normally goes after. After you watch them in college you can see they can flat out cover. While Reed being a perfect nickle corner and with Williams it may not be a need we don't really have any depth behind him and Reed has special teams value.

Lol my bad...I love this kid, great flim and he brings an attitude that fits right in with Sherman

Richard Sherman was also a 5th round pick and ended up being a HOF caliber player.

This man right here has greatness written all over him. Has a little Chris Harris plus some Aqib Talib play making ability. 10 years from now we are going to be like wow, this one of the best draft classes of all time in team history.

With all said and done, no way the rest of the QBs from the NFC West should now be able to complete a single pass against our new 218 Defense !!

2 - DL = Buckner & Forest

1 - LB = Marsh

LCB - Sherm
RCB - Spoon

RNB - Reed
LNB - KWaun

Robber - Colberf
Box - Tartt

FS - Ward
SS - Harris

BOOM !!!!

Reed will give K'Waun Williams a run for his money...he's fast and very confident. He was #12 rated CB in Walter Football's draft prospects. Should be some spirited competition between them.
