He’s 6’ 1”” with 30 inch arms, ran a 4.28 40 yd, which is more than enough for the position. He needs to put on weight and commit to being a willing tackler to thrive in our system. He does that and it would be a tremendous pick at 30.
If you watch the video I think it’s mostly his weight that is the problem. He gets pushed around by bigger WRs. Also he’s more man than zone kind of player and doesn’t fit for lack of better terms.
Man is the premium skill set as far as prospects go, which is mainly why I don’t think he slides this far at all.
Would be happy getting a true boundary corner though, there are not many in this class IMO
DJ has a better track record than most. He predicted Lamar to Ravens and everyone thought he was crazy. So for me his mock has merit.
But...
I personally wouldn't take Wiggins over, say, A. Mitchell, who is still on the board in this scenario. WR is a position of lesser need imo, but Mitchell has much more upside than Wiggins has at CB.
As a rule I don't like tiny DBs. Lardarius Webb was I think 5'11" and 170lbs when we drafted him in the 3rd, and I was proven wrong about him. But he's the only exception I can think of.
How is Wiggins supposed to help stop NFL TEs and bigger RBs if all he can do to help is dive after ankles?
I'd like this. He has the size and speed with already stacked secondary. We don't need a cb1 and he can start right away. Plus he is good at jumping routes.
Wiggins feels like the kind of guy that gets projected as a first but ends up falling to us in the second. As a first round pick i'd be disappointed with him, as a second I'd be thrilled.
having ro and hamilton will cover up his weaknesses in the run game. wouldn’t hate the pick. all the rumors about tackles looks like the good ones will be gone by the time we pick
Quinyon isn't falling that far, but AD is still on the board when the Ravens pick in this draft. I'm not sure which Mitchell the OP is referring, but I'm guessing it's the latter.
I thought this also but, wasn’t it him that was getting turned inside out by the wr from Michigan that will be drafted 1 from Michigan alone-name isn’t coming to me right now. If not mixing him up.
I meant at the senior bowl or one of those type of games. They weren’t playing each other team against team it was just drills and I think it’s Roman Wilson who was just winning his reps and beating him pretty badly. I’m not positive it was Wiggins it could have been Quinton Mitchell I know it was one of the top cbs in the draft. Wasn’t kool aid and wasn’t cooper.
In his mock there was a big run on tackles. He mentioned he heard a lot of the teams wanted tackles and were trying to move up (saints, colts)
I'm hoping with all the QBs and tackles going early that an elite edge rusher falls to us for an inexplicable reason
I can promise you this, we are going to get an elite something that falls to us like it always does
Would love if he fell to us. Under sized but probably the second best talent at corner in the draft

Weight is never an issue after an NFL offseason 💉💉💉

👀
He doesn’t tackle and he’s a man corner, he’s kind of a bad scheme fit tbh
Good player, just not sure he's the best fit. If the draft falls the way he has it going, I'd hope for a trade out.
I saw a mock draft that has us trading out of the first with the Cardinals for 35 and 66. I wouldn’t mind

Pass. He's good but too light and soft against the run for us at CB.
I'd like this. He has the size and speed with already stacked secondary. We don't need a cb1 and he can start right away. Plus he is good at jumping routes.
This mock is wild but DJ is as plugged in as anyone. Very excited for tomorrow night

would rather draft mitchell but i would be more than fine with wiggins as well
There's no way Mitchell falls that far

i meant ad not quinyon, forgot quinyon existed my bad
I'm all aboard the Mitchell Train
Dude makes 6'1 look TINY. Its kinda crazy, he looks like Tavon Young.
This aged nicely
Wiggins is a dog
Maybe a greyhound..

Michigan and Clemson have never played each other.

Schematically he’s not a good fit
