Had an NFC Personnel executive tell me “He reminds me of J.J. Watt, when Watt was coming out. An explosive and versatile playmaker who has a high motor and can line up at 3,5, or 7. Very strong kid” #NFL#NFLDraftpic.twitter.com/5qM3g6OrMr

I like Cook. I think we needed a banger for depth at Safety, and it looks like he has the potential to fill that role very well. But I was really high on Travis Jones and he looked really good the other night too. Looked like a perfect fit for what we need next to Jones in the middle of the DL. Big, strong, and quick. Pursued better than I expected, he plays way faster than I realized. He was still on the board when we picked Cook.
I predicted Mafe would have a better career than David Ojabo. Staylor roasted me but I stand my ground.

ANOTHER reason to call him GK Maxx
(the other)

Right I think it was more about Ojabo and my skepticism that he puts up those kind of numbers without Hutchison on the other side. We'll never really know though, the injury will always be a potential reason if he doesn't succeed. [Reply]

If Mafe were 22 like Ojabo, as opposed to turning 24 in a few months, I probably wouldn't have pushed back on that as much.
I really like Mafe, but the age thing was a big deal for me considering he was more of a projection based on athleticism/traits. [Reply]
if he becomes a superstar we need a good nickname for him after a Greek God. If he has a killer swim move, Poseidon could work. Or Cerberus because I've already heard people say he's a dog. [Reply]
