ajzepp Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I had no idea this guy was even in the draft this year....figured he'd come back for his Sr. year. Living here in 'dawgs country, South Carolina get a fair amount of press because of the rivalry. I've seen this guy play a few times and he is a game changer. I definitely don't see us drafting a 3rd DB in this draft, but I would LOVE to see us draft this guy as a FS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get it! 676779[/snapback] Maybe it's fate We'll just draft an entire secondary! I'd love to see him in our backfield with this new kid we drafted in Rd 1...... If we pick up a guy like Simpson in the 4th, that would be something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undisclosed injury, character, etc. 676782[/snapback] I read that his inexperience is a knock against him (I thought he would have been a Sr this year, but he would have only been a Jr), but beyond that I have no idea. If he's got character issues, certainly we can draft ONE guy who's not a perfect angel, can't we?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEAST MODE BABY! Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Apparently, there are speed concerns regarding Ko Simpson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not getting my hopes up, but he'll likely be there with our 4th rd pick tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As stupid as it sounds, I seriously wouldn't be upset at the pick if it were made. Our DB's would be young, but you would be looking at a Lineup of: S: Whitner, Simpson CB: Nate, McGee, Vincent, Youboty That looks very good to me. And hell, we've ignored OL all the way to this point, I think at that point in the 4th round you go for the player that could reasonably start instead of an Olineman that will probably end up no more than depth.

Ralonzo Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I guess it's a less lethal pick than Doa Simpson. Should we unretire #32? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
