Remember that shit second round pick out of Bethune Cookman and the bum we got with that one? Fuck Ted is a moron.
How about giving the kid a chance to show what he's got? granted it's from highlight reels, but he looks fast as hell, aggressive tackler with good ball skills and great body control. It also sounds like he's got that constellation of intangibles Ted loves: smart, loves the game, leader, all that jazz.
comparisons to Jimmy Ward and Devin McCourtey from NE......I'll take the latter
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 ?

The #Packers selected safety Damarious Randall from Arizona State. I’m told they view him as a cornerback.
I get the Jimmy Ward comparisons especially as framed in the media draft coverage where both were once 3rd round picks who stood out in every predraft event. I don't think they are that similar as prospects though. Ward is more like Brandon Meriweather. A mini linebacker. Randall is more Earl Thomas. Cover skills and mega range.

Dude perfectly hits the measurables that Ted looks for in corners.
Note: Tramon and Sam weren't drafted and their measurables are from their Pro Days (which tend to be better than those at the Combine).Code:Tramon Williams = 5'11" 194, 4.57 40, 4.20 sht, 6.95 3-cone, 37.5" vert, 13 bch Sam Shields = 5'11" 194, 4.30 40, 4.19 sht, 6.79 3-cone, 39" vert, 15 bch Casey Hayward = 5'11" 192, 4.47 40, 3.90 sht, 6.76 3-cone, 34" vert, 19 bch Damarious Randall = 5'11" 196, 4.46 40, 4.07 sht, 6.83 3-cone, 38" vert, 14 bch

Apparently he was an All-American while playing CB in JUCO. This is the most Ted draft pick ever.

we needed a cb in the worst way and got a versatile one. ari st got him to play cb but needed him to play s. turns out he's the highest rated s in the draft. had he played cb who's to say he wouldn't have been a highly rated cb. don't think we have anything to worry about. lb or dl is next. maybe tt will move up and get one early tomorrow.
Just watched Teds presser. Apparently, Ted thinks Randall is "a good football player", because he says so about 15 times.
This is what I've been thinking. I'm surprised it took this long for someone to mention this. One thing that stood out for me in reading and listening to reports was the kid's closing speed - his knack for the ball.
And like Collins, when TT drafted him I said "Who the f---- is that???"
Hell, none of us know if he's the next Jarrett Bush or the next reverse Leroy Butler. But I do like how very enthusiastic Ted seemed to be. More so than usual.

This is another, now former, Packer:
Height: 5111
Weight: 194
40 Yrd Dash: 4.57
225 Lb. Bench Reps: 13
Vertical Jump: 37 1/2
Broad Jump: 10'7"
20 Yrd Shuttle: 4.20
3-Cone Drill: 6.95
Any guesses?
They're sorta similar, though Randall seems to be more pro ready and has better measurables overall.
