Not in the first round apparently
..There's concerns about his age..

Starting your rookie year at 23 shouldn't push yourself outside of the 1st entirely if you're a sure fire 1st round talent. If you're that concerned about losing potentially 1 good year out of the guy's career, you shouldn't be making the decisions.
Say he gets his 2nd contract after his 4th year and like A.J.'s it's extended with his 5th year option, he'll be 27 at the start of that season. A.J. was also 27 at the start of his 5th season.
You plan on your first rounders to be good enough to earn and play through at least 2 contracts, his age won't prohibit that.

Yeah, Doctson is too good to not go in the 1st despite his age.
I am predicting to the Vikes right in front of us. Hope we go with Billings at 24.

I was gonna use Brandon Weedon as a defense to drafting older players......... . . .
Doctson is great, I didn't know he was so old tho!
Do you think he fits our situation though? A team that needs to win one in the next 3-5 years or bust. I mean, if we can get a guy that can do that, then his age shouldn't matter. We are going to hit a huge rebuilding stage in like 2020 anyways.
