Xavier Rhodes and David Amerson? @ 12 and 42

Rhodes: a big, physical corner who is great in press coverage. is also a great tackler. he could come in and start right away at field corner. great fit for our defense.

Amerson: http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/blog/e...amerson-spent-2012-trying-to-break-int-record Amerson says he spent 2012 guessing on routes and trying to break the interception record. I figured there was a reason why he played so well in 2011 and struggled against Tennessee and Miami. He is a phyiscal and has long arms at 6'1 205. He has outstanding ball skills and looks like a WR going for the ball. NC State used him in off man coverage, which I don't think is a good fit for him. I believe he is a perfect fit for our defense. He is the prototypical press man corner. Amerson pulled in 13 interceptions in 2011! I think he should be brought in as a boundary corner. Here are his interceptions from 2011: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5J62b8pb2qE

I'd be fine with Rhodes at 12, even if I prefer pass rush help there, but Amerson at 42 would irk me.

 

[fanfin]

would be our Sam Madison and Patrick surtain, not the second coming of Vontate Davis and Sean Smith!

 

[PeterNorth]

1. You have no way of knowing or guaranteeing that

2. There are plenty of other needs. 42 is too high for Amerson.

 

[j-off-her-doll]

Amerson is a Cover-2 CB or a FS, and I'm not drafting him before the 3rd.

 

[Birdmond]

Yeah, pass on Amerson in the second round. I'm okay with a CB at 12. Kind of boring but I see the need.

 

[SamIam]

I like Rhodes.. Wish we can get him

 

[FinaticalOne]

I'm not sure about Amerson at 42, I would rather take Darius Slay at 42.

 

[MP-Omnis]

If we pass up another slam dunk DE/LB (Clay Matthews) for a corner again, I'm gonna scream.

 

[MiamiDolphin618]

If we pass up another slam dunk DE/LB (Clay Matthews) for a corner again, I'm gonna scream.

Who is the slam dunk DE/OLB that you want at 12? Hindsight is 20/20. I think X. Rhodes would be an excellent pick at 12...depending on how FA goes

Rhodes @ 12 is ok, Amerson is not @42, in my opinion... Lemonier-Okafor-Carradine DE, Ertz-Escobar TE, Steadman Bayley, Hopkins, Hunter WR...even Ball or Bernard RB would have a bigger value...
