Sounds like he came on late in his college career. But could be someone in a year or two. Pass rushers are hard to come by.

I think it is a bit of a reach but he should be able to contribute. I believe he's much farther along than
Just don't feel confident with only 3 legit corners (Fuller, Amerson, Nelson) |

For what it's worth, Kiper before the draft said that Speaks was "the most underrated defensive player in the draft".

Here's his Combine video: https://www.nfl.com/prospects/breela...f-b3aba25676ae
Wasn't impressed until he started showing his ability to change direction, guy can move. |

I'd love this pick if his name was Maurice Hurst. Not sure I get why they had to trade up for this guy.
ESPN guys did seem to like him more than Mayock, so there is that. Guess we'll see. Front office must really like him. |

Watched his tape - looks like he's really good at diagnosing the play and finding the ball, and he is a very aggressive tackler.

Some of you people are so mind-numbingly stupid I can't even comprehend how you can figure out how to post.
We've made ONE pick. "We still need a corner" ... "our cornerback room still sucks" ... news flash: you can't fix your entire ****ing team with 1 draft pick, and here's a bonus tip for you - drafting for need is what the Cleveland Browns do. Go be a Browns fan. Have fun with that. |

Remember, these "experts" also had Ryan Leaf and Jamarcus Russel as top picks......
