William Jackson III (4.37 forty) was drafted right before Burns in 2016 and had last season to absorb some things even though he didn't play. William Jackson III is a faster player which makes it easier to recover from mistakes during a play.
Hobson needs to look at the Artie Burns situation.
We could Draft Clemson corner Cordrea Tankersley in round 3 for depth and he is projected as future Starter material.
Tankersley would be a mid 2nd round pick most years but this Draft Class is DEEP at corner.
My source on this was former GM Charlie Casserly who I saw on on NFL Network who likes Tankersley who ran a 4.40 forty and projected him to mid round 3 due to the deep class.
We don't even have to use a 1st or 2nd round pick on a corner for depth and William Jackson III could be starting before mid season.
No need to keep Pac Man and the Locker Room would take on a New Aura without Pac Man's dominant personality.
I just know if we take a corner in the first who we all know will ride the bench I will blow a gasket.Like you said this draft is insane at corner and almost just as good at safety.I just want to know where all those safeties were when we knew we were going to lose either Reggie or Iloka to free agency ( come back Reggie,,I miss the predator ?)
