What did we give up to move up?

I would be highly surprised if that’s the Eagles plan 

I would be shocked if it wasn’t.

Bradberry was so bad last year Howie said he needed two new corners. 

Fine with burning a 2 for that 

I would have been fine with DeJean at 22, to get him in the 2nd is amazing 

Wow love this pick.

Was torn last night when they took mitchell because I really liked cooper but really liked mitchell as well and now they get both.

Both these guys could have been top 15 and Howie got them at 22 and 40.

Good stuff💪👍🏆

 

So Coop and GJ at safety with Blank off the bench?

Mitch and Slay with Rodgers and Ringo off the bench? 

Fire Bradberry into the sun?

 

Amazing.

There's our new safety boys!!!!

he was announced as a CB.

Slay and Mitchell outside. DeJean in nickel for this season. He can potentially  move outside next year when Slay is gone.

2nds this year and swapped 5ths to get 40 and 70

He was announced as DB 

DeJean was a legit 1st round talent.

Our secondary is set. It will be a strength of the team before you know it.

lol love Brandon Graham!!! Interesting they called him a DB and not a cb or S. 

That's because that's what he is... which is likely why he lasted to the 2nd round.   He's a bit undefined regarding position... which actually helps him here, IMO.

DeJean is a safety who will play nickel a lot of the time.

Yup. Will be a safety/star

DeJean! This Sheldon Brown and Lito Sheppard all over again, and I love it.

First thing that came to mind.

There’s a serious logjam at CB now. Michell, Slay, Ringo and DeJean are locks. Everyone else is battling for 2 spots. 

No logjams , Cooper will be Fangio's field general at Safety

He’ll play safety/nickle

Wow that's not bad at all

Maybe we can get trott jr. With 78

I missed it because my damn kids are too loud. Was he announced as a corner or safety?

I think DB

I mean who else is really worth making it? Rodgers I guess, there really isn't any "wow it's gonna suck if we lose him" body at CB. 

No one, just saying it got full fast. Maddox, Rodgers, Bradberry, Ricks, Jobe, Hall, McPhearson, Garner all clearly on the bubble. Wouldn’t be surprised to see some of them moved even if it’s just a day 3 pick swap 

I've been calling for Cooper DeJean since last year. I'm so happy with this. Don't forget he's an ELITE return man. With the new kickoff rules, he's going to be a weapon. He also might make Covey expendable.

He's not playing outside CB, he will be a Swiss Army knife mostly playing safety and being Vic's field general.
