    So if we draft Lattimore, he would pretty much fill that Jason McCourty role?

    Always hurt, so even though he would be the "best" player, it wouldn't matter cause he would be sitting out.

    He wasn't hurt at all this past season at OSU.

    Lattimore needed hamstring surgery a couple years back and he is still having issues with them.

    I don't see those issues going away anytime soon. Which is a bummer, cause he is one of my favorite corners this draft, right behind Sidney Jones.

    And the two seasons prior to that?
    Edit: and btw, I want a top CB, have for years. Wanted Ramsey last year. That said, I DO NOT want an injury concern who can't stay on the field.

    Lattimore is a very good player, but he's hurt to much to even think about at 5, same with Hooker and Adams doesn't strike me as a top 10 guy, more 11 to 15 range, love his intangibles though. I think we're better at S than we think, CBS being so rough made that look like a much bigger issue than it is IMO. Take whoever falls to us because I have a gut feeling Garret or Allen will be there

    Ignoring that this past year was the first he got through without injuries? I want a top CB, but I also want a player who can stay on the field.

    and if he gets through his Pro Day w/o injury??....

    He took up Yoga, adjusted stretching techniques, etc in order to permanently strengthen his hamstrings.... and his injury today wasn't his hamstring... hip flexor.
