    Thing is though Edmund's was a raw reach. Leonard imo was mainly considered borderline first round because he played for south carolina state. I think I would have rather reached for him than Edmunds. Just saying I see teams that seem to have better overall talent evaluation than we have had as of late. We know how to pick on offense but not defense what so ever.

    I think...jmo...Is they took a guy like Edmonds especially for Gronk, But also players of his ilk...We have struggled monumentally against him and the like...

    Gronk is a unique talent...LB's can't guard him, to big for corners and most safties...I think / the Steelers thought..And it still might come to fruition that this hybrid type size/ speed combo was the way to combat this problem...

    He is still so young and has shown promise...Way to early to give up on him

    It's not about giving up on him. In this case, that is a straw man argument. I'm certainly not saying we should give up on Edmunds and I don't think that is what Analyst believes, either.

    Edmunds has been at least decent and he may become a very good safety. The point is that Leonard would have been a better pick. He is already a better player and there is no reason he can't continue to develop, too.

    Personally I thought JuJu should have gotten the nod over him, didn't say he didn't deserve to have gotten in.

    Really though I don't care all that much, I don't watch that crap show anyways.

    This is proof of a flawed system, he played great in the first half but they second half it died off due to injuries. Voting prematurely is a slap in the face to the ones who gave 100% the ENTIRE season at a high rate.

    Be glad the day come that I don't see Brady's name on it!!!! Probably the only current player that would automatically make it even if he had dismal season just saying!!!
