I knew that he had talent coming out but I was concerned that he wouldn't hang around long. The Lamar Jackson play will be forever remembered.

At that time I know on some boards I seen him as a late one early two. I just knew we caught a steal on an athlete where we drafted him. Sometimes the freaks steal your money.

The guy was never on my radar coming out of Georgia and although he had some growing pains early he turned out to be extremely solid. Aside from popular belief including me at times we've drafted talent and developed properly.

Well this was just another case of had it totally wrong!
This guy was a heck of a talent coming out of Texas A&M at that time and some will still argue a late first round prospect. I remember him just fading away like cotton candy because it was quick!

I mean this prospect was just big and could run but I just wasn't sure if the skill set would transfer out of the Mountain West. Some people had him in thier mocks but I just didn't see it. He played here at a high level until we couldn't or didn't pay him and at one point was a top three position player at his peak in the AFC. ( Not exaggerating)
WHOA: Christian Weathermen
Solid player coming out of Arizona State who I thought maybe we stole two rounds later than where we should've got him. Its funny because I can't really remember him in competition for a job. Who was he behind at the time Zeitler or his eventual replacement? I'm not even sure he's in the league right now.

Draft Gem: Brandon Wilson

I mean from what I can remember he was a solid player coming out of Houston.( Could be wrong on the school)The return game is what I can remember most but not much as a defensive back. The moral of the story is the guy is on his way to a pension in the NFL and is still active on this roster until....
WHOA: Cobi Hamilton

For me I knew that he needed a bit of development coming out of Arkansas but I thought that he could be a solid contributor over time. Where we ended up drafting him was a steal at the time.

I didn't know him then and I don't know him now but I'll tell you is that he's etched his place on this organization. I'm sure he's around here somewhere getting six figures. The man does "Something" well. Kudos to him.
WHOA: Mario Alford

I can remember mocking him to the Bengals in the seventh round in that draft but it was deleted along with my earlier work here. This guy was explosive coming out of West Virginia as a returner and in the offense.. I have to post his highlights....
