In Hindsight....Should the Bucs have stayed at #5 and drafted Morris Claiborne ?

[dbucfan]

     By now, I think most posters realize by staying at #5, we would NOT have gotten both David and Martin. Definitely way too early to give up on Barron. Without knowing actual player responsibilities, can't really judge his play. Other than failing to get his head around on a few coverage plays I recall, only his coaches know...

I think a team can normally get to where they want to be - it might have cost more in picks or a player - but doable - surely.

Sure but there's better rookies than Claiborne. Just at CB I'd rather have Jenkins or Heyward.

Exactly . If you want to question Barron that is fine . It's merited at this point . But don't bring up Claiborne , the guy blows so far .

Agree, its not out of the question.  Could of traded some late rounders or even future picks and still ended up with Claiborne, David and Martin.

Unsurprisingly, you're woefully uninformed.  Unlike Barron, Claiborne's play has been much better over the last month.

Still better than Gaiter, Leonard, and anyone else the Bucs have.

Barron isn't living up to the 7th overall pick so playing better than him shouldn't be any thing big. Has Claibornes play been better than Jenkins or Heyward? I'm interested in that.

I'm not sure Jenkins has been playing well other than the 2 TD returns.

Could be right can't say I watch to many Rams games. Isn't he the #1 corner on a pretty solid D though?

Not even close . Anti-java claims we win hands down if we had claiborne . Let's see how Claiborne faired when HE faced the Eagles....


"Cowboys rookie CB Morris Claiborne was flagged for five penalties in the Week 10 win over the Eagles.
Opponents are attacking Claiborne and avoiding Brandon Carr. The No. 6 overall pick has been thrown at 39 times this season, giving up 24 catches for 306 yards and four touchdown"

Excellent take...

Finnegan is the #1 corner.

He is still better than that dumpster fire we have at CB.
