I like Max Melton. Played at Rutgers with Christian Braswell, his counterpart that we drafted last year in RD6. Melton comes from a good athletic family. That 4.39 at 6'0, 190 pounds doesn't surprise me one bit. 

He doesn't seem to get beat deep at all from what I have seen. I would take him in RD4 though if he's still on the board and see if he can be developed for a year or two. I am honestly hoping we get a jump up in play from Braswell in year two. Similar to Montaric Brown. 

The other CB's to watch for me are Khyree Jackson out of Oregon & T.J Tampa out of Iowa State.

Odds are that he does if he slips past the Chargers. I could see the tacks taking him to pair up with Levis for years to come. Too many mismatch opportunities for teams and with Callahan coming over there to coach them from the Bengals he'll probably see it the way most people see it.

2nd year QB that's scrappy with a big arm that likes to play backyard football with a big athletic mismatch player at TE that can run and catch, block and get open. It's very easily an early opportunity to create a safety blanket for himself as a play caller and 1st year head coach.

Jarian is one of the best, if not, the best slot corner in this draft class. His performance today did him big time favors.

Yeah, this is why i want Jones.  He could fix one of our problems we have had for years and help get the defense off the field on 3rd downs.  I hope he is there when we pick in the 3rd, we might even have to take him in the 2nd. If we dont go corner in the first I think it is very possible.
To Jones' point, he allowed an NFL Passer Rating of 0.0 this past season when targeted in man coverage, allowing 3 completions for 40 yards while recording 3 interceptions on 176 snaps designated as Man Coverage by TruMedia via PFF. No other defensive back with 100+ snaps in man coverage had a better mark.
