Jihaad...in some mocks goes as high as 9 though.
I still like Green. Idc how big he is. He plays a lot bigger than his listed weight and is strong as hell. I think he and Pearce are going to produce right away.
Big fan of Jihaad as well. I thought he was bigger than he actually is FWIW. I'd be happy to see him be the pick.
IMO it's not out of the question to take a safety, either. They're taking a big risk if they go into the season with Stone and Battle as the guys. One is a bad athlete for the position and the other (Battle) still has some questions about being able to hold it down at this level. I'd like the group a lot more if Stone could be a 3rd guy like he was in Baltimore with a higher upside draft pick stepping in. Doubt Nick E. makes it to us, but they should run to the podium if he does. Starks would be another obvious choice.
It comes down to whether you think a stronger secondary brings the most bang for the buck or additional pass rush makes the whole unit better. I'm not sure there's a correct answer, but they have to hit on the pick either way.
