    There always seems to be a dominate DLineman in every draft, but generally I prefer going BPA in the draft, but we have major issues at CB to not go CB early

    if there is a CB we like at 3 or 16 we have to act, usually CB's come in as rookies and stink, so its going to be a process at first and people will complain, unless he's a beast

    Yeah good CB's don't last...We will have to. Thankfully, we have 2 picks, so I'm okay with it...I'm with you though..If we can get a nasty pass rusher, LB, or wideout, we need to act there too

    Lol, you're a fool. Henry was a beast all season. Byard looks like a solid starter as well. Sharpe has been good all season.

    Johnson and Dodd are unknowns at this point. But as of right now, we got 4 solid starters from last year's draft. That's a pretty impressive draft. If Dodd and/or Johnson turn out, it will turn into an amazing draft.

    Some CB's last but it's harder today to last. Between all the penalties called on them or avoiding the penalty and letting guys catch the ball, I think teams are always looking for a CB to be in his prime whatever year of their career.

    sharpe has been average at best. You guys accept mediocrity too much. That's part of the problem with this franchise and it's nashville fan base.

    Henry looked good with his reps yes but you never know about someone till they're a every down starter. Byard is not that good either. He just started cause we have no else. He's good depth though. Sharpe will never be more than a number 3.

    It's almost like you have no concept of development, receivers take time and oven don't start putting up big numbers until year 2 or 3. Sharpe is overperforming already for WHERE HE WAS TAKEN.

    lets apply your logic to receivers who didn't start putting up numbers until year 3.

    Greg Jennings
    Roddy White
    Stevie Johnson
    Dez Bryant
    Demarious Thomas
    Chad Johnson
    Reggie Wayne
    Steve Smith
    Keyshawn Johnson
    Terrell Owens
    Steve Smith

    You would have labeled every single one of these receivers as never being more than a #3 because mediocre rookie seasons. NONE of these players put up numbers until year 3. Not saying Sharpe will be anywhere near anyone on this list, but saying he will never be more than a WR3 after his first season is an incredibly ignorant statement to make after a small sample size.

    stop labeling players that are rookies for gods sake.

    After Prescott and Elliot, Conklin has had the best season of any rookie.

    several of these players on this list got injured their first few years. Jennings was only good cause of rodgers.

    So even with the rest of the players on the list as evidence you still think a rookie receiver has hit his ceiling and we should just accept it?
