  1. The year before, he had 7 picks, and he was one of the better tackling corners still on the board.

    It's a crap shoot for me right now. But I think with a linebacking corps that I'm very happy with, my defense will be alright.

    I actually like your other defenders quite a bit , I just think there are better corners but to each their own.

  2. Looks like the gang is all here. We can get quite a few picks in here.

    Honestly I had to do a bit of checking into McMillan. He played a little less than half the snaps for the packers. Played at both safety positions. Had some better games earlier in the year where he actually was playing more snaps. His best games were early in the year against Chicago and Indy. Both games he rated well in coverage. He only played 5 snaps across 2 playoff games. This was all his rookie yr so certainly room for improvement.

  3. I'm in the minority but I like Cary Williams as a #2 CB. I think he gets an unfair amount of hate. He's a good #2. He might be one of the very best in the league at being a #2 CB. He'll never be a #1 but for a late-round draft pick out of Washburn that's terrific!

    I completely agree with this assessment. I thought I would be alone in defending this pick. For the project that Williams began as he has played extremely well in his time here. He is not a number one shut down corner, but there are less than a dozen if those in the whole league.

  4. Went with Babineaux to complete my devastating front line.  Another player who can get a nice pass rush from the inside as well as a tackles for loss machine.  He put up 8.5 last year, landing him as #2 in this category for a D-Tackle.  he is 31 which was the only thing that gave me a bit of pause selecting him, but that is not too bad for an interior d-lineman who has only missed 6 games in an 8 year career. 

     

    Also was going back and forth with several corners, but decided on a rookie who can do everything I want him to do well, he is especially at home with press coverage which will really frustrate QB's with the type of pressure they will be seeing from this defense on a regular basis.  I see no reason why he won't be able to start right away on the right side at the least. 

     

     

    Also like the Daniel Manning pick, he was my top rated Safety available.

  5. Pick is in, decided to take a dynamic pass-rusher to pair with Kerrigan. He might still be a rookie, but at this point his upside combined with the lack of OLBs left made him worth the pick for me. With Mingo this really sets my defense, I'm loving the way its shaping up.

    I will message RavensAllTheWay that he's up.

    At this point mingo is a nice choice. As you said he has the chance to be a game changing rush linebacker.
