TC in St. Louis Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 4th round pick from Duke. What did he do this year? He was really smart, right? Did he play? Special teams? Was he worth being picked that highly? Pierre Desir was chosen a few picks later by Cleveland. I think that might have worked out better. Just picking through the leftovers tonight.

FireChan Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Searcy was a 4th rounder who did pretty well for himself after a few years. Hopefully Ross does too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Desir never saw the field until week 16 so hard to tell who would have worked out better at this juncture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Big Cat Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Something something Jonathan Meeks. Face it, they all won't work. But who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codyny13 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Tall, rangy corner. Needs to put on some weight and get acclimated to the pro game. They're not all starters off the bat. Duke came out strong this year after a year of learning. We have our secondary starters, I believe the guys at OBD might see him as an heir apparent to Mckelvin. The bills are building their backfield to mirror Seattle's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like what I have seen from Cockrell from preseason on. The guy looks like an above average starter down the road. His measurables are good, his instincts are excellent and he plays the ball well in the air. He'd have played a lot more but that CB group is good and experienced. They aren't as good as they've looked because QB's have been forced to make hasty decisions but they are good. I wanted Martavis Bryant.....it was a rare chance to get a talent like Bryant that late but Cockrell is really promising, IMO. It was one of those drafts where there were lots and lots of good players in each round. A lot of teams that reached for need were rewarded. This years draft looks like a real dud by comparison. Reaching for need would be especially risky this year. Fill needs in FA and get bpa in this draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafter Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 4th rounders usually don't play right away on talented teams. (our D is) Let him develop into a quality reserve or surprise us and be a starter. No need to worry or rush it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TC in St. Louis Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 Good feedback. I was hoping people had noticed him. And we did get a lot of production out of our second team guys. Think about it. McKelvin and Gilmore were out the last game and a half. We had a good year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
