Betts was drafted to be Davis' successor, but with more speed and pass-catching ability, which made him fit better for Spurriers offense. That said, I think will will do very well spelling Portis, as long as he can stay healthy. But like Matty, I wouldn't be surprised to see Rock move ahead of him. I'd say the jury is still out, but I'm leaning towards calling him a good pick...just maybe a little too high.
As others have said, Bauman is a solid nickel back, not great, but solid. Good pick.
Russell will be gone during training camp cuts. Bust. I still wouldn't say he was really a wasted pick though...every pick is a gamble.
