Which out of these 3 DB's would you take?

IMO Xavier Rhodes is the best prospect out of the group.

Great range, can disrupt WR's off the line, and can can also CATCH THE BALL.

GREAT ball skills. For a CB his size he has flexible hips. Did i mention he can TACKLE?? :ezbill:

Great in run support and forcing fumbles

But id take Rhoded/Banks over Milliner but only because they are longer.

Note* not taller....longer

Milliner is like every other HYPED Alabama DB. More of a zone coverage CB. Don't leave that kid on a island though.....

And whiffs on alot of tackles

All have potential but I would go with Jonathan Banks if the choice was mine . My opinion of Banks is very high he reminds me of a Namdi Asomough , Mike Mckenzie , Champ Bailey type corner a big physical master of man coverage . The guy has huge up side , look past his last three games he was playing on one leg . That could benefit us because he was a top ten pick and he could slide alittle

I would not be surprised at all if we took Banks at 15.

I agree with Rhodes, but speed is his question, banks is good too but skinny, and really haven't seen alot of the top guy, just haven't considered him falling

I would love to take Rhodes in the 1st...BUT only if we trade down and somehow pick up a 2nd rd. Rhodes is exactly what we need in our secondary. Not the fastest but makes up for it by jamming/physical play at LOS.

What Bama Dbs were overhyped??
Kirkpatrick was hurt most of his rookie year
Javier Arenas was only going to be a nickel CB and a punt returner
Kareem Jackson struggled in his first few seasons but is reporting turning it around
Mark Barron is a good player
Who am I missing?

Dee is a better press/man CB than zone. He shut down half of the field all season long. And I'm not sure where you get that he whiffs on tackles, the kid is physical and isn't affraid of contact. He is the most well rounded CB in the draft and thats why he will be selected in the top 10.
