Ralonzo Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 #252 overall. Kiper says he was a 3rd/4th round grade until combine testing was underwhelming, running a 4.6 despite a sprinter background in HS.

Unless they decide that he is better / more useful than Siran Neal and keep him on 53 (saving §2.3M in cap space in the process) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Length, zone coverage skills, field awareness. I think there's a path for him to make the team, just has to beat out Cam Lewis. 19 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasted a prime late 7th rounder...  Some do not understand that with 7th round team the team chooses where player goes and get a 4 year contract.  With UDFAs player/agent chooses and often the player will get a 3 round allowing player to go to free agency early if play warranted.  Either that or Lightning is terrible at satire.

Bangarang Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I didn't even have this kid on my board. Matter of fact, I didn't even have anyone on my board, or a board in general. He probably plays football I'm guessing otherwise he wouldn't be here. Enjoy the turkey burgers at training camp rook. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 If he is good enough to make the roster, maybe you can move Dane Jackson for a DT or Edge.  As another said, maybe it is between him and Cam Lewis for final DB spot.

You never have enough CB’s, and our guys seem to have a knack for picking and developing them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
