But he is a shutdown corner if he heals 100%. There have been plenty of players over the years in the same boat as Ike. This is generally the point of the draft teams look for big steals.

yeah, I definitely hear your point, but there are just as many guys that fall from top prospects to 7th round or UFA's. His injury was pretty significant and I think he just falls a little farther than a few rounds

You hate Keith Rivers? Apparently you don't watch much football.
I watched almost every VT game and Flowers plays man, not physical. He isn't a powerful bumping corner. He fails to slow receivers down at the line, and he is slower than some LBs. Jenkins is 10x more physical.

Keith Rivers is an athlete, not a great player. He was the third best LB on USC, and if any of the pther top LBs had came out Rivers would be a second round pick, he can't shed blockers, overruns way too many plays, and lives strictly off his athleticism, which works in college but not in the NFL(Arrington is the best example). I'll take Connor or Lofton over him any day of the week.

Bush is and will be a game changer. He presents huge matchup problems in goaline situations. Think Brandon Jacobs of the Giants...with athletic ability and a mean streak. As far as the work done on the mock draft....excellent work. I have to admit...with all of the transactions that are taking place concerning 2nd through 4th round picks...i don’t know if it will pan out that way. I think up to the 2nd round....your Mock draft is excellent. I think you should wait a little closer to Saturday for the rest. Why? You might ask....because look at the first round...pick 17. The Vikings don’t even own it anymore. They just traded the 17th pick and some other late round picks to the Chiefs for DE Jared Allen. This year is going to be a huge yr in pre draft trades and Draft Day trades.

Hey Talented, you know we've got a mock draft competition going on if you're interested. winner gets a gift card if we have enough entrants. It's in the Nfl General Discussion section.

I agree with the post on Rivers. Although he will be the first LB selected this weekend, I think Meyo is a much better pro prospect.
