I remember because we needed a corner that year, and I hated the idea that the Lions were going to get the best corner in the draft (we took Gladney later). That was also the year no one believed in AJ Terrell because of a bad national championship against LSU. Who was he going against? Jamar Chase and Justin Jefferson. My argument was that Darrelle Revis would look bad against those guys. FSUVike thought I was nuts.
Actually, I just looked up three mock drafts from that year, one from early Feb and two more from April, and Okudah went top 5 in all three. I don't remember where I put my keys, but I remember drafts.
Oh, I understand the consensus. I wasn’t a fan of personally. I think Henderson was my guy.
