In other words, he has time to get healthy and develop his skills under Anarumo. And, as long as Salyer doesn't have herniated disc issues, I see him as an immediate upgrade over Carman.
Booth has also had a torn patellar and has missed games with various soft tissue injuries going back to high school. In a weaker CB class, I would probably overlook it. A stacked as CB is in this class, though, I would want a clean prospect if I'm taking one in the first. If he were the actual pick, I would likely be optimistic about him, to be fair.
Aside from his punch and position versatility, there's not a lot I like about Salyer, especially in wide zone. Carman was a slightly higher rated prospect in a better OL class and has better feet. Lance Zierlein comped him to Quenton Spain. He also doesn't represent a value you just can't pass up at 63.
