Some more scout analysis of Darius Slay:

Darius Slay was a little known prospect at the beginning of the season, now it’s possible he could go before highly touted teammate Johnthan Banks. Slay is one of the most athletic corners in the draft with a long athletic frame. He’s new to the starting role, but made tremendous strides in coverage over the season. He’s shown plenty of potential to cover in both zone and man systems. In zone he can transition out of his back-peddle quickly to close separation and break on the ball.
He’s able to use his length to congest the catch point and get his hands on the ball. Slay is a willing run defender, usually getting himself in good position and will only improve with more time. Slay is a special teams stand out that will add value to an NFL roster with his ability on coverage units. Slay is likely going to be a day two selection and could go as high as round two.

49ers fans...how does it feel to be fans of a team that drafts well, stacks talent, and runs an organization the right way. I just want to know what that feels like.

still trying to get used to it friend.

Erickson> Nolan> Singletary....... *sigh* still trying to get used it.

Hope the Panthers take either Jamar Taylor or Jonathan Banks. Wouldn't be too mad with Larry Warford either. Hope we don't take a WR though.

No matter who the Jets drafted people would be mocking the pick.

Gotta love how people laugh at Mark Sanchez getting replaced. What a horrible pick.
 
Will be a long term piece on the line, but just unexpected. Lotta good defensive players still available and Lacy still there. DMC won't play 16 games this year and is in a contract year, unlikely to be resigned.

Seriously all this bullshit is ridiculous.

Broncos waste a 2nd rd pick on a QB last year instead of taking somebody who could have helped them win.

Patriots waste a 3rd rd pick on a QB two years ago instead of taking somebody who could have helped them win.

Jets spend a 2nd rd pick to replace Mark Fucking Sanchez and people act like its a woeful pick. Give me a break.

I think it's more that Geno Smith is expected to also be a Sanchez-level QB.

Developmental QBs though. Theory is either develop them to take over, or for a trade. I wasn't happy with it last year, but I understand why they did it.
