Amerson had 5 picks last year, THIRTEEN the year before.
And he is a press-cover guy who consistently covered the opposing teams best receiver.
6'2" 194. Played safety in HS.
57 tackles in 2010, 59 in 2011, 61 in 2012. According to USA Today, he is built more like a safety, and is big and physical and a good tackler.

I like the Amerson pick.
He is a tampa 2 style CB and who better to coach him than Morris.
He reminds me alot of Sean Smith and Richard Sherman. also, his 13 int in 2011 shows he plays the ball well in the air and makes plays.
If he can improve his footwork, he will match up well with the big WR in the division.
His NFL comparable player was in fact, Sean Smith. Good call.

I'm hoping from some 6th and 7th round gems.

safeties are going slow, maybe we could even pass on one in the 3rd as well? that idea just scared me a little though. easily our biggest need!

Amerson will probably start day 1 folks. He's pretty good, maybe not what we all wanted but can't be mad at it.
Worse case scenario is he'll be given a chance to play safety if he doesn't pan out.
You just wonder if there was an OT available worth the 51st pick.
Who will be targeted in the 3rd?

I like the pick. he's a ballhawk. Fills a need. #85 if Baccari Rambo's available we take him

yeah, physically/stats wise, he's exactly what you want. if he can be coached up, he could be amazing. but if not, you know... a bigger version of hall.

I think Amerson is good. I am gonna call Phillip Thomas in round 3.
