it makes sense because before the draft our most proven Safetys were Jeff Heath and Karl Joseph

It seems like they’re just trying to get all the athletes this year In attempt to make the defense much faster than it was

You guys really need to stop avoiding context. 

Gillespie is a quality, versatile safety prospect. Those are super valuable, especially with injuries. What position are we not addressing?

what other positions of need are there? We added a LB and Edge earlier, signed 10 DTs, everyone was crying g for a Safety in FA, we chose to address the position in the draft.

Man it's the 5th round, chill.

It is not just this round.  Our 3rd round picks should have gone in the 5th, could easily trade down in the 1st, and now ignoring falling talents.  Sorry but this team is bad at drafting.

I dont see the problem, we've been the slowest defense in the league for years.

So we're.....what 7 deep at Nickel/Weakside LB? 

Gillespie isn't a linebacker. Diablo played safety and does some LB ish things.

We have Muse, Morrow, Littleton, Kwit, and Deablo (maybe). I'd rather have more coverage backers than thumpers. Especially in a Gus Bradley scheme.
