Of the remaining teams, it's quite possible that we specifically need DeJean more than the other teams do; that they need a pure corner more than we need a top safety prospect. I honestly am starting to think that at 25, we'll need to choose between DeJean and trading back. I vote "DeJean".
Quinton Mitchell
Overview
Mitchell possesses a gumbo of traits, with size, strength and speed filling up the pot. He’s built like a running back, tackles like a safety and has the ball skills of a cornerback. Mitchell can play in a variety of coverages and was the clear-cut top cornerback at the Senior Bowl when working against the top receivers in practice. While he needs to trace a more efficient path when hounding the route, his burst to close and physicality at the catch point could create tougher throwing windows for quarterbacks. Mitchell’s traits, play demeanor and special-teams potential should make him attractive to teams in the market for CB help.
Strengths
Well-built with broad shoulders and natural physicality.
Feet are fairly nimble and agile to change direction with routes.
Postures up into pass-catcher’s frame and claws at catch point with success.
Outstanding burst to close for quick recovery and playmaking.
Sees what he tackles in run support and wraps the legs.
Tackling and speed to become a top-notch gunner on punt teams.
Weaknesses
Can get in trouble by declaring his hips too soon.
Still learning to maintain feel for routes in man coverage.
Eye balance between quarterback and route is inconsistent.
Average route anticipation can get him behind at the break point.
Will get caught behind bigger downfield targets, from a positioning standpoint.

Brian Thomas actually able to catch a ball? His eyes do not point in the same direction.
Yeah; at this point, there'sno questipon about whether value would be there. It will. Only question will be, does Gute want to roll the dice? His board does not look like any of our boards, and he's a bit smarter than any of us.
bummer probably torpedo our chance to move down with buffalo
HOFer
Longest for a DB to come off the board since the early 90s.
It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!

Brian Thomas Jr.
Overview
Presents an appealing combination of size, length and speed with experience working inside and outside. Thomas will occasionally go through the motions as a route-runner, but the bend, athleticism and speed needed to get better are all in the toolbox. He’s elusive against press and can uncover quickly underneath, but he still needs to improve intermediate routes and play a little more physically when crowded to become well-rounded. Thomas rarely has issues generating separation deep and could be counted on as an NFL team’s designated deep guy early in his career. Thomas is unpolished but has projectable talent to become a WR1/2 in time.
Strengths
Good job of steering clear of press hands during his release.
Short-area shake helps uncover for quick hitters underneath.
Able to bend hips and sit in the chair at route breaks.
Straight-line speed takes him into top position on go routes.
Outstanding ball-tracker who can bring it in over his shoulder.
Length and burst to run down and secure potential overthrows.
Led nation with 17 receiving scores at a pace of one every four catches.
Weaknesses
Needs to pick up his route pace and salesmanship as a pro.
Will battle occasional focus drops.
Can avoid catch contact by working back to the throw.
Fast but possesses average run-after-catch talent.
Might need to ramp up physicality against clingy coverage.

DeJean or Wiggins ? Nice options
LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
I know, I was laughing my ass off!!!! Almost woke my wife up, and definitely pissed off the cat. It was like the Eagles contracted out their draft room to The Men in Black.
HOFer
