    Drafting hooker at 5 and Conley at 18 would be the absolute best fix for our secondary tbh even though Lattimore is the best CB in the class

    This draft is deep with corners though and Hooker is only super elite safety

    Lattimore would be a surefire top-tier CB, if injury wasn't a concern. He literally has no weaknesses and elite athleticism. Unlike Ramsey, who was questioned by scouts in terms of his lateral quickness and ability to keep up with shifty WRs, he has 0 concerns in this area. I'd like to see one more year of production, but he seems too good to pass up and absolutely worth it at #5.

    He's likely gone before #5 if he didn't have the injury concerns and had more experience.

    I've dreamed of a shutdown corner for years. I don't see how the Titans can pass if he checks out medically.

    And he will check out medically but that's not my concern. He has no major injuries I'm aware of. It's the nagging soft tissue injuries similar to Alshon that I'm afraid of. Constantly nicked up and having to be monitored is no better in my opinion to one major injury. Potentially worse actually.

    Jones.... his movement skills looked wonky to me. Could be nitpicking. Didn't notice it on film either.

    I think Lattimore is just as good.
