I've been on James probably longer than anyone. Favorite player in. Draft for longest. But it's tied for me now.

Highly doubt it. He's rocketing up draft boards right now and by the time he destroys combine and pro day he may go earlier than 12. He's already in 3 mock drafts in the top 12 in last 48 hours.

If both are on the board, I'd go with Smith.
I view Edmunds more of an 18-25 range guy.

I was hyped on Smith but more I watched him less I liked him. Smith=more athletic darron lee. Both are smaller lbs and Smith looks to run around blocks therefore getting him out of position way to often. Edmunds runs through the blocks and always in right position. Also they're about the same speed wise but Edmunds is taller, bigger, and younger with a Better play iq and better coverage skills.
