I think he'll be a top 25-30 corner for the next 2-3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidersAreOne Posted March 20, 2018 Author Share Posted March 20, 2018 I for one would still be super down to take Ward at #10 (if he is there). We can go from one of the oldest, overpaid and worst CB corp to one of the youngest, cheapest and best in one season: Smith, Amerson and Carrie Vs. Melvin, Conley and Ward Sign me up. Edit: Barring Conley comes back 100% and Melvin doesn't go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Barring Conley comes back 100% and Melvin doesn't go down. I'd be all for going for Ward at 10 (although, I still would prefer a trade back). There's still plenty of trepidation with the group as it stands. Look past Melvin and Conley -- both players who've been injured in the past -- and there's not much there. I also wasn't as high as consensus on Conley he remains a bit of a question mark for me as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverNBlackFan Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Rumors are the Browns are going to take Ward at #4 if Barkley isn't there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find this surprising tbh. Conley was such a good CB prospect. Some (not many though) had him above Lattimore. He would have been an even higher pick had he not been wrongly accused. The kid is going to very, very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be something. I think there are better options for them at #4, but it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no evidence Melvin is better. He has one year of production. He could peak just like Amerson did. That said, I certainly like his attitude and grit a lot more.

Still, I have a good feeling about him and everyone here coveted him way before he signed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I certainly like his attitude and grit a lot more. There is plenty of evidence that suggests Melvin is a better player than Amerson. I look at free agents just like I do draft prospects, and Melvin shows traits Amerson never had. Melvin excels in press man and has a highly effective jam and does both at a higher level than Amerson ever did. He's also has superior change of direction and is much more involved against the run.
