philafan4o8 Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 If Witherspoon and Gonzalez are on the board. I take Witherspoon in a heartbeat. Witherspoon the only top 10 CB prospect in my opinion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then get an Edge at the end of the round and hope that Charbonnet is still there at the end of Round #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 2nd rounder on a C after having just taken a C in the 2nd last year? I don't see it unless we're planning to play one at RG (assuming we let Seumalo walk which is definitely a possibility but I don't think a certainty). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rey Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Didn't realize Gonzalez is only 20 years old as compared to 22 for Witherspoon. I think Witherspoon is the more finished product, but Gonzalez has the higher upside with his size and athleticism. I'd be happy with either at 10. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s essentially a Landon Dickerson comp, where he’s plugged in at G if both Kelce and Isaac move on. EDIT: JM.Schmitz came in really light (301!) - I'm out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talonblood Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 One of the top 3 CB's. Some say #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course there are good players that come out of every conference, it’s about playing the percentages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzalez is a stud. I'm just not sure Howie likes drafting CBs high. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally I would say no as Howie prioritizes the lines, but considering we are about to lose both starting CBs, it's a lot more likely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh for sure if they lose both then yeah I think there's a very good chance. Mind you if Slay does go then I think they'll bring back Bradberry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradberry had a fantastic season dont get me wrong but I would still prefer Slay. Slay was seeing most of the tougher match ups. Slay has been more consistent than Bradberry as well. I would prefer cheaper alternative like Murphy, Dean, or Murphy-Bunting. With a great pass rush, our margin for error is a little wider. Hard to spend that money at corner given the current state of D-Line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think Slay did decline as the year went by and he’s 32. He’s also going to cost a lot against the cap and at his age I don’t think a restructuring is a good idea. I’d prefer Bradberry, CJGJ or even Epps or another good S and a first round corner. I think that’s better now and for the future. Plus I’m not sure our pass rush is going to be as good. In fact I think it’ll take quite the step back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they leave his contract as is and tell him this is all they got. I know he wants more money but that ain’t in the cards. If they trade him so be it but I would call his bluff. But I am strongly against resigning Bradberry. I think they need to get younger at DB. Top priority should be CJGJ and a young CB in FA. This way they can still draft CB in 1st round because Slay will likely be gone this year or next. I think Bradberry’s best years are behind him tbh. Yes he had the best year of his career behind a historic line but I would not get caught up on that personally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
