You can freely make statements if you wish regarding players as definite if it represents your opinion but never make an assumption about other people's opinion as fact because I am sure the hell not basing my concerns regarding a rookie CB based on a DE or a OL guy but cornerback and I have been watching football longer than Keim's tenure and handling of draft picks... and my opinion says a rook can not handle the brunt of targets in our system opposite of Peterson :)

You make a blanket statement that rookies cant handle being a starter CB. So is that all rookie CBs? No rookie CB whatsoever? Would that apply to a guy of PPs caliber, if he were a rookie? Or Deion Sanders? I already gave the example of Marcus Peters. His rookie year was amazing. Elite top CBs in the entire NFL type performance.

IMO, it dosnt make sense to assume a guy cant immediately play as a rookie. Especially the best ones. We are picking #13 not #30. At #13 you can get the best or 2nd best CB in the draft. If any rookie CB might be able to start, itll be that guy

Here's the list thus far with some of my notes and projections:

Reuben Foster, LB, Alabama Official 30 visist
---possible #13 pick, if available---great talent (medical)
Javancy Jones, LB, Jackson St Official 30 visist---6-1, 245 edge disruptor, moving to ILB---7th/UDFA
Davis Webb, QB, Cal Official 30 visist---possible #45 pick, if available---has BA QB traits
Deshaun Watson, QB, Clemson Official 30 visist---possible #13 pick---the BA/Dabo connection could rule
DeShone Kizer, QB, Notre Dame Official 30 visist---possible #13, #45 pick---has BA QB traits, lacks polish
Dylan Cole, OLB, Missouri State Official 30 visist---small college tackling machine---7th/UDFA
Johnathan Ford, S, Auburn Official 30 visist---speedy 5-11, 200 slot CB, S---converted from WR
Trey Hendrickson, DE, Florida Atlantic Official 30 visist---possible #77, #120 pick---BBuck coached and likes him
Elihah Lee, LB, Kansas State Official 30 visist---possible #120, #157 pick---6-3, 228, lean but mean and quick
Mitch Trubisky, QB, North Carolina Official 30 visist---possible #13 pick---has the "it" factor with leadership, feet and accuracy.
Nico Siragusa, OG, San Diego St Combine---possible #120 pick---strong 6-4, 326 run/fan blocker
Mike Williams, WR, Clemson Combine---possible #13 pick---well suited to take MF's role
Alvin Kamara, RB, Tennessee Combine---possible #45 pick (should be well gone by then), has big upside as dual threat RB/receiver
Avery Gennesy, OT, Texas A&M East/West Shrine Game---6-3, 308 blocked M. Garrett in practice, but looks like he's better suited to play G---possible #179, #197 pick
**** Tabor, CB, Florida Private Workout---possible #45, #77 pick---big-time playmaker, despite slow 40 times
Michael Roberts, TE, Toledo Private Workout---huge hands (11 5/8"), 6-4, 261, solid blocker and red zone target---possible #157, #179 pick
Adam Shaheen, TE, Ashland Private Workout---Cinderella of the draft---small school stud with tremendous catch radius and hands---possible #45, #77 pick.
Patrick Mahomes II, QB, Texas Tech Private Workout---possible #13, #45 pick---big arm, needs grooming
Josh Jones, S, North Carolina St Private Workout---possible #45 pick---versatile in coverage, made to order
Samson Ebukan, OLB, Eastern Washington Private Workout---small school edge star---possible pick at #120, #157.
Paul Magloire, LB, Arizona Private Workout---might be able to play SS, tough kid---possible #197, #231 pick.
Corn Elder, CB, Miami Private Workout---just ran 4.33s---can press and smother---possible #77, #120 pick
Carlos Henderson, WR, Louisiana Tech Pro Day---shifty, quick RAC WR ann PR---possible #77 pick
Nathan Peterman, QB, Pittsburgh Pro Day---smaller than what BA prefers, but has leadership and accuracy---possible #77, #120 pick
Jabrill Peppers, S, Michigan Pro Day---dynamic playmaker and PR---possible #13 pick
Keion Adams, DE, Western Michigan Pro Day---under-rated run stuffer/pass rusher, possible #179, #197 pick.
Taco Charlton, DE, Michigan Pro Day---probably the most Chandler Jones-like player in draft---possible #45 pick (if he slides)
Jimmie Gilbert, LB, Colorado Pro Day---6-4, 225---tied for PAC-10 lead with 9.5 sacks and had 6 FF---has height but needs to add muscle---possible #157, #179 pick
Tarell Basham, DE, Ohio Senior Bowl---fast riser up boards--6-4, 262 edge setter and rusher---10 sacks last year---possible #45 pick.

Who the hell names their kid Corn????
