GB should really trade out

When I heard the word "DUKE" I threw up on myself again. I'm still using one can of Vaseline a day to lessen the pain from the NCAA championship game

Maybe the Patriots traded out of the 32nd pick to the Packers pick?

don't make trades with hoody, we would probably end up giving up picks to move back

BACKGROUND: A multi-sport athlete in high school, Randall chose baseball and enrolled at Butler Community College in Kansas and spent the 2010-11 season on the baseball diamond, playing shortstop and centerfield. After a right shoulder injury, he decided to play football instead of rehabbing the injury, transferring to Mesa Community College in Arizona. Randall redshirted in 2011 and was an All-American defensive back in 2012, seeing snaps at cornerback, free safety and wide receiver. He recorded 69 tackles, nine interceptions and five total touchdowns (two receiving, two punt returns, one interception return). He was a three-star cornerback JUCO recruit and received almost three dozen scholarship offers, choosing to stay in Arizona and play for the Sun Devils. Randall missed the start of the 2013 season due to a groin injury (nine starts), finishing his junior year with 71 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, six passes defended and three interceptions. He started all 13 games as the senior boundary safety in 2014 and led the team with 106 total tackles, 12 passes defended and three interceptions, earning First Team All-Pac 12 honors. Randall earned an invitation to the 2015 Senior Bowl.


STRENGTHS: Above average speed for the position with transitional quickness and natural footwork…highly aggressive and plays at full speed at all times – never gives up on plays and has a knack for chasing down ballcarriers from behind…understands situations and sees things happening quickly…decisive sideline angles with closing burst to make up ground…good anticipation to jump routes, reading the quarterback and baiting throws…heady awareness and won’t fall asleep at the wheel…adequate ballskills and knows what to do with the ball once he gains possession (six career interceptions, averaging 29.8 yards per return with two touchdowns)…plays bigger than he looks and initiates the action, seeking out contact with a violent mentality to strike through his target…plays pissed off (in a good way) and sets the tempo – unselfish team-first type with ideal training habits…played on special teams coverages at Arizona State with experience as a return man…productive starter in only two seasons at the FBS level, creating 10 turnovers (six interceptions, four forced fumbles).


WEAKNESSES: Undersized and lacks ideal strength and bulk for the safety position…willing tackler, but too often needs help to finish stops and can be taken for a ride – too many ankle biting tackle attempts…needs to break down better on the move and keep his feet underneath him to be more reliable in open-field opportunities…overaggressive at times, leading to wasted steps and motion…will get fooled by play fakes due to his aggressive nature…needs to stay patient in his pedal and often bites too early, which will lead to disaster when lined up in man coverage…still unpolished with the technical side of the game…needs to harness his hostility to avoid unnecessary contact and late hit penalties…size and violent play style draw durability concerns as he was often dinged up in college.


SUMMARY: A player with cornerback size, but a free safety skill-set, Randall took a winding road to Arizona State, including not playing football for two years after high school, and developed into a First Team All-Conference performer as a senior in Tempe. He plays with a fast and physical attitude, routinely sticking his nose in the fire, but he can be inconsistent as a box safety at times, struggling to work through contact and allowing himself to be blocked out of the play. Although he needs technique and discipline work in coverage, Randall has the size and body fluidity to hold his own, including the ballskills and confidence for the next level. He might not be a day one starter at safety, but he has the traits to make an immediate impact on special teams coverages and help in nickel situations – top-100 grade, who could go as early as the second round because the overall depth at the safety position is below average.
