A tradition as old as time: A potential high draft pick does something incredibly stupid, and fans of every team start salivating at him dropping to them later in the draft.

There’s a few safeties I like, but I don’t think we should be looking at corners unless we find ourselves back in rounds 5-7. Some guys I like are Jarvis Brownlee from Louisville, Beanie Bishop from West Virginia, Malik Dunlap from Texas Tech, Marcellas Dial from South Carolina, Johnny Dixon from Penn State, Jarius Monroe from Tulane, or MJ Devonshire from Pitt.

More likely than not a 3-4 OLB but it all depends on who drafts him and how they line him up. The Broncos had Elvis Dumervile who was even shorter than Kamara. He managed to have a very good NFL career playing both as a DE and as an OLB. He was a very productive college player. Dominant even but he fell to the 4th round due to his atypical size. Another short guy who did play RDE is Dwight Freeney.

Definitely a good S class. There could be a couple of good ones available on day 2. If we trade back and pick up a 2nd round pick, I'd like to grab Nubin or Hicks. Definitely don't need a CB right now.

You never have enough CBs. I'm not advocating drafting one at #1 (obviously) or #9, but wouldn't object nearly anywhere else. CB play is volatile and injuries happen all the time.
