Good pick. Revel was my choice for CBs but Amos is right up there too. he fits perfectly as the 2nd outside CB and allows us to move Sarinstil back to the slot where he can be an All Pro.
Amos has a sick combo of size, length, and speed. Hope the low agility #s were because of an apparent nagging injury that should be healed by now.

This pick I don't like that much. Defense needs to start up front and our front is still weak. With the Eagles stopping the run is going to be key for the foreseeable future and against every other team, rushing the QB is king.
I think some of the DL that were there are going to be good players and better value.
I don't think he's going to be a bad player. Just not a really good one and DL would have been better value.

I don't know how anyone can be upset with this pick. Lattimore is simply not the same player he was in NO and it remains to be seen if he can ever recover that level. And he is injured ALL THE TIME. I agree they may be able to fill the edge need in-house, Luvu on passing downs, don't forget Jean- Baptiste. But you can't hide bad corner play.

Who are the DL prospects you would have preferred? Most seemed to have Amos rated somewhere between 25-35, around 40th at worst, so he was definite value.
I don't like the fact that we have zero young Edge talent to speak of either, but the reality is that you need to take the best available talent when your pick comes due or trade down, we were pretty lucky to be picking that late in round 2, and still have a top 30ish talent available who played a position of need.
