2017 Draft Thread

[sherck]

Obviously, our roster is SCREAMING for a veteran CB to be signed even if we end up taking multiple CBs in the 2017 draft. And there are still a few available that I think could help us: Alterraun Verner, Corey White, B.W. Webb, Nickell Robey-Coleman.

However, at this point, since Ballard has not made a move in about a week, I would guess that none of them fit what he is looking for.

My guess is that Ballard is now going to wait until the "surprise" camp cut phase of free agency to find a veteran CB to come in and either start opposite Davis in 2017 or give a veteran "push" to a rookie who wins the job.

I don't think that we are going to get a solution to CB shortly; we will need to be patient until Week 1 of the NFL season to see what the "plan" ends up being.

But, even though we are "re-stocking" over the course of a couple of years, I would be surprised if no veteran CB is brought in unless we end up using 1-15 and then our 2nd or 3rd round picks on CB as well and they just kill it in camp.

Cheers,
