Looks undersized to me.  Could spell trouble in the red zone.  Guess I will have to trust the process. 

Same size as Tre White.

I can’t remember the last time I got six pages into the round 1 Bills draft pick thread and saw this few complaints.

 

has it EVER happened?

 

Everyone seems so….happy and reasonable. What planet am I on?

Nope. Taiwan Jones (no relation to the former Bills player), played linebacker at Michigan State before spending two seasons with the New York Jets (2015-16).

Or we've already rationalized that he's going to be a disappointment.

I mean...if this regime knows a position its CB...so I think with this staff and Tre mentoring, this kid just landed in a great spot to reach his potential.

Speed is a nice change in the secondary. But man, he’s tiny, like how’s he gonna tackle anyone?

 

Would have rather taken Johnson and risked the injury concern.

 

Oh well, good luck, kid.

He needs to put on 10 lbs to weight the same as Tre at the combine. 

 

I think he can be a difference maker, just hope he can put on a bit of muscle and start healthy.

im picturing him trying to tackle Henry.  it isnt pretty.  yes he shouldnt have to do that,  but thats what crept into my mind at first.   speed and awareness are nice though.  def needed CB2.  welcome to the Bills.

The interview with Hairston’s weird wholesome family sold me on the pick.  I’m like 90% sure they left that interview to finish up a Settlers of Catan game.

[Thrivefourfive]

So the Bills drafted CB2. We cannot be upset at that.

Here’s the new CB2 in action.

Much much better athlete but not as technically refined as Tre

Love the speed; slightly concerned about his build. Hope he can hold up to the NFL. And, if he adds bulk, it doesn't affect his pace.

lets just play with a lead and let him defend the deep ball

[Special K]

Beane trading with KC last year so they could draft Worthy, all the while knowing he was going to draft the guy who can cover him in the following draft.........Beane playing 6D Chess!!!!!!!🤣🤣

[Breakout Squad]

I love Hairston. To get him at 30 is awesome. He’s going to be elite.

Only argument would be the elam trade up in 2022 haha.

 

But agreed, for the most part they know what they are doing when it comes to corner
