He made all the caveats that they may not be there at 28, but his pick was Emmanuel Forbes. If Forbes isn't there, his prediction is Lukas Van Ness. Hoard's pick is Kelee Ringo.
Forbes is reported to have good play recognition and would seem to fit Lou's mad scientist defense plans. I'm concerned that Ringo may be a reach, but he does have good height for CB and if Lou feels that he would be important to his defensive plans, then it sounds good to me. Van Ness might prove very valuable against these mobile AFC North QBs. I don't understand how he never started a game for Hawkeyes, but is clearly projected as first round talent, if not the top half of the first round.
