2024 2nd round pick #43 is Max Melton CB

[D-Dogg]

I have a hunch that monti took a gamble thinking mckinstry or dejean would still be on the board and clearly lost...,

I have a hunch they didn't want Kool-aid for a myriad of reasons (intensity, catchup speed, ability to smother) and didn't want cooper as a tweener safety corner coming off injury.

Everything I read/see/hear on madmax suggests he was gonna be their pick regardless.

Kool-Aid had an undiagnosed Jones fracture. I've done a bit of research and a Jones fracture is actually a pretty serious injury because it has a higher than average likelihood of not healing properly and having complications.

Sure he ran a few months later, but I think if you have two CBs close together, you avoid the guy with the Jones fracture.

Availability can be the most important ability

Caught me by surprise but after watching film it looks like we got our number one corner.

A little premature but I would be shocked if he flamed out in the NFL.

In a three CB defense, I'm guessing that Williams, Murphy-Bunting and Melton would start. But, who would be our fourth CB, if it was a choice between KeiTrel Clark, Starling Thomas and Elijah Jones? And, I know the two rookies have yet to play NFL FB. Just asking for a guess.
