    Wow, can't believe Shane Ray is actually at the draft. Kinda ballsy.

    This is what the Titans turned down.

    Perriman. Meh, would honestly have preferred Devin Smith or Dorsett instead of him. Major boom or bust player.

    Patriots had a great selection with Brown. Perfect replacement for Wilfork. Belichick got a another gem late in the first round.

    I think this Johnson dude will be able to keep up with the WR's that burn us with speed. We soo desperately need a CB that can match that problem we couldn't overcome and lost us games last year at least 2-3 games.

    I don't see why they would turn that deal down. Would have been perfect move for Tennessee, IMO.

    Not with his lack of maturity.

    Why would anyone compare Cam Netwon to Jamies? They are two entirely different types of QB. Cam Newton is a mediocre NFL QB. He doesn't have the accuracy to make throws at the 2nd level. Jameis is a much more a student of the game with a high football IQ, he has a lot of the intangibles that Andrew Luck has, but his questionable decisions off the field makes it a gamble to bank on him ever living up to that sort of potential.

    He'll have his chance, but getting accused of rape, standing on a table in front of everyone shooting f in the p, etc, etc is more than just about maturity.

    Jameis Winston has some serious issues to overcome. If he has early NFL success and finds a comfort zone, will his head remain screwed on? I have serious doubts.

    His character issues are far worse than Cam's. IMO, you do a disservice to Cam by bringing him into this conversation.

    I'm reserving judgment until I see how they end up with tonight. Still a lot of holes to fill on this roster. Cooper is who I wanted all along. Stunned that they went with him over Williams, but happy.

    I don't recall Cam Newton sending a picture of himself with a laptop immediately after getting drafted.

    I think the combination of poor decisions with the lackluster sophmore year make him a huge risk. Quarterbacks are faces of the franchise. You want them to be high character guys (or at least be capable of appearing that way).
