Yup, most torn labrum's you see are shoulder injuries not hip injuries. His workout and medicals will be worth monitoring because he's an excellent player otherwise.

PR is a nice hook.

Recent trend is towards S.
I see the rest of the world is catching up to me.

Interesting how these mocks have shifted over time...
The shift is significant toward safety, which makes sense considering how in limbo the safety room is. Plus, both Starks and Emmanwori play a position that is often devalued in the first round of the NFL Draft.
Things are likely to continue changing, but secondary being the focus is likely to continue.

Definitely trending. I just caught it early.

It takes me longer to come to clarity lol!
I think I believe this with April just a week away:
Tier 1
First, they would love to take a CB if the right one is there
Second, they would take a DT if the right one is there, not at the expense of a value CB
Tier 2
If the CB or DT they want isnt there, they go RB, S or IOL - take your pick
Trade scenarios are far to numerous to figure in.
there, Im at peace till draft night.

I’ve got to believe that’s the way the brain trust is thinking too.
I’d say it’s far more likely the DT they like is there than the CB. Harmon is giving me some KWill vibes.
If neither is there I think it’s down to S or iOL. Jeremiah has given us a S in two of his three mocks. The nice thing about Starks is he’s played in the slot, out wide, in the box and deep. He could easily be our own Brian Branch. Seeing how BFlo values being able to play multiple positions, I can see the draw.
Emmanwori is just a complete beast. I think his game would be better suited closer to the ball. Spy. Slot. Dime backer. ST demon (which has been a priority). When Harry is done Emmanwori takes over for Mettelus who slides to Hitman’s spot. I think it’s likely he’s off the board before 24.
If we go iOL, Booker is just a great fit. Tone setter. Another leader type. Soul snatcher. As we continue towards more gap, man, duo he becomes a hand in glove fit.

Been hearing a lot about CB Nohl Williams. 4th round projection. 6-0, 200 lbs and a ridiculous amount of INTs. 14 in the last two seasons. But if you watch his highlights, you see a lot of pop flies. The first play in this video is one of those. He won't see idiotic passes like that in the NFL. Or will he? Note who throws it.
