Welcome Deane Leonard, CB, Mississippi (R7, #236)

[equivocation]

He's a starting corner at a big time program who doesn't get thrown at and times well. Is that not worth a flier?

Alabama threw at him with success.

Alabama threw at him with success.

Bama threw on Georgia with success and that was one of the greatest collegiate defenses ever. I’m not stressing about Bama having success over a 7th round pick.

Yep.
Definitely a phenomenon.
Tevaughn Campbell..
Jamal Davis.

Vaughn Martin in the past (4th rnd pick 2009 draft) he played a few years. A lot of good athletes and their parents have immigrated here . There is less demand so it is easier to get into Canada vs some other countries so we are getting many good athletes from the Caribbean and African countries.


Amen Ogbongbemiga is from Nigeria, Vaughn Martin was from Jamaica. Andre de Grasse's ( the medal winning Olympic sprinter) parents were from Trinidad and Barbados . Damien Warner's ( The gold medalist at Beijing in the decathlon,) dad is from Barbados.

Actually a lot more star b ball players. Jamal Murray, Andrew Wiggins, Jamaal Magloire, Tristan Thompson, Chris Boucher , Dillon Brooks etc.

A pretty good showcase of his timing on attacking the ball. Not a lot of ball skills apparent but he certainly does well playing the ball, predominantly while trailing. A couple of those plays at the beginning are probably flags in the NFL so he’ll definitely need to work on being careful coming around/through WR.

Deane Leonard sounds like the term that people like to used. Either this pick or the Ja'Sir Taylor one is my least favorite pick in this years draft.

Eh. It’s 6th and 7th rounders. They’re more likely to do something under Staley than most other teams.

he was drafted mid 7th round not 7th overall, the kid is raw and is a bit of a project, the tools are there hopefully the staff will be able to unlock his potential…
