Yup... he stuck there.Doubling down isn't a bad strategy.
We weren't necessarily wrong on Elijah Higgins, we just didn't have room for him and the Cardinals did.

That’s funny because it seems like all the guys picked out that way were duds except for holland.We used to find a lot of sleeper type talent out here when Adam Engroff was the area scout and based in Boise. He slowly worked his way up and is now Co-Director of Player Personnel along with Anthony Hunt.
I can't believe I'm seeing things like JAG or whatever.
IT'S A LATE ROUND PICK - DUH-****ING-HUH.
Expecting an immediate pro bowler and HoFer, are ya?
Yeesh.
Nobs.
Right. McDaniel wants to find that super fast tight end, even if it's a wide receiver that can make the switch.Doubling down isn't a bad strategy.

Engroff was the west coast area scout until about 2005 or so.That’s funny because it seems like all the guys picked out that way were duds except for holland.
My take on McMorris was that most scouts thought he was very good... AND very bad.
Whether this came from poor technique or a lack of football acumen, I couldn't say.
The fact that our scouts were super high on him seems to indicate they think his flaws are correctable.
I make no claims either way... he looks like boom/bust to me. I am reminded of last year where we drafted Elijah Higgins, but signed Hill to a UDFA contract... evidently figuring that one or the other would stick.
This year, we drafted McMorris, then outbid other suitors for Mark Perry. It looks the same.
I loved watching Poyer play corner. his 40 was more like mediocre rather than terrible.IMO. His stellar 3-cone helped offset it. I thought he had a chance as an NFL corner and was wishing Miami would draft him.I remember when Jordan Poyer was a very solid CB at Oregon State (another pac-12 DB). He ran a terrible 40. Philly gave him a chance and he caught on as an NFL safety at Cleveland. He was always tough and wise, but he also isn't big or fast. This sounds like McMorris. We'll see what he can do on ST.
