OK so if he is the best Corner and he will be ready by Sept. And he slides all the way do you take him. Obviously ACL MCL forget it. It says lower leg which is usually a break. That shouldn't be long.
The story was pretty vague as to injury. If knee, then he will be there in the third. We have two picks................ Remember if the story plays out as ACl / MCL then he won't be of any use rookie season. It would essentially be a 2018 pick.
Exactly. Cross him off the list. Our first and 2nd rounders must be able to play this year and hopefully start by mid-season or at least be contributing significantly (i.e. OLB that will take 25-30% of the snaps from Deebo).
Bad luck for that kid I hope he took out insurance. That said I would be all for him with our third round comp pick if it's a season ending injury. If it's partially torn he should be back by training camp and I would be thrilled if he fell just to 30.
If he was a potential top 15 pick and if the tape backs that up I would take a shot in the first. I agree we need players who can play now, but if Jones is a lot better than what's out there I would take him and hopefully Golson will play this year.
Really sucks for him. Jones was one of the CBs I had hoped for if the top pass rushers and Howard are all gone at 1.30. I do hope he recovers and I'd gladly take a chance at him with one of our third-round picks.
