God I have seen some stupid mocks by some of the legacy media like CBS Sports, ESPN, etc recently. Like clueless to team's needs. I know that these sites have hired a lot of kids over the last few years as they've made salary cuts to longer tenured vet writers, but its gotten very dumb.

The final piece to the Maul of America. This pick screams karma with the tie in to JJ.

Just for shits and grins I went and looked at CBS. You owe me for eye bleach. They could recruit a couple guys from Walter's and do a better job.

I am starting to really like Jordan James. Great burst and acceleration. Had something like 30 redzone TDs in a BBC and is only a junior. No fumbling issues throughout his career. Very strong for his size. Doesn't go down easy. I like that he has minimal wear on him and that means a lot coming out. Everything about him as a runner seems great, vision, cutting, and the ability to follow blocks and hit the hole is very explosive. Lacking pass blocking at the NFL level. Hopefully that can be taught.

Lots of Edges early, only helps the Vikings...
I'm not sure the mini CB run starts with GB and MN, seems late for that level of talent and position
I might shed a tear taking anyone but Nolen if he was still on the board.

Wow, if we have Barron, Harmon, Nolen, Starks, Zabel AND Booker on the board when we pick it's going to be hard to trade down. Not to mention one pick away from Will Johnson.

I take Barron without much hesitation. Well, maybe I let the clock run to the 3 minute mark just in case someone gets stupid.
Here’s another nugget confirmed.

Now the real question, who do you choose between Barron and Harmon? I think those two would be the conversation IMO.
Hope that the team behind you trades with you to get their guy, and we just take whomever they don't?
In this situation, I think you have to go Barron. Stay at 24 and just take your CB and get over that hump of your CB issues, that we have seemed to have forever it feels.
