They raved about him last off-season. He was going to slotted right behind Sneed and McDuffie. I believe they think he will be better than Watson and Williams.
It's fucking crazy how good Veach is at identifying DB talent and how good the coaching staff is at developing that talent. Good CBs can cost quite a bit of money, so the way Veach is a master at drafting these guys allows us to go cheap year after year on a pretty expensive position. I don't think they let McDuffie walk, but that's because he might be the best CB in the league. [Reply]
