That is what is so awesome about the pick, so versatile. He has the speed to play on the outside no question.
Might take Apple's spot as a rookie.
And is a great fill in at Slot in case Hilton goes down.

Luxury pick baby!
I went to the Steelers and Ravens board.... man are they jealous. One of the Ravens guys thought we got the better safety than the one they picked 17 picks earlier.
Lol, I actually agree with that Raven fan.

The Chargers are exceedingly better. The Raiders are exceedingly better. Denver is better. KC I don’t think they can replace Hill. But if it were me I’d trade up and swap seconds and give up a 3 and maybe a 5 to get Logan Hall. Only if you had the pick in hand with the trade. Grabbing 2 of the most versatile players in the entire draft in Dax and Hall would make this defense and it’s sub packages a pain for OC’s. The offense with the revamped OL is going to be really good. That would really position us with a solid team.
Don't forget the Bills who had a nice pick last night too. Yes, if we can trade around and get Logan Hall that would be great.

Like Au165 said, they probably will use Dax at CB as long as Bates is still here so yeah, we don't HAVE to go CB in round 2.

If the right guys falls I don't think it would preclude them from taking a CB because you can never have too many but I think they look at Hill as this joker who they plug into whatever need they need to cover to let them get value off their board.
Truth.

I love Booth as a player but I took him off my board early when I heard about the injury history.

So true, fits the Division to a T and Pickett can run a bit too, not near what Lamar or Deshaun can, but some.
He isn't a statue, was a good pick by the Stool IMO.
