The FS is one of the most important positions in the cover 3, and we got one of the best FS's to project in that defense since Earl Thomas. For what we do, this was a very good pick. Grigson's answer to that FS was TJ Green, Ballard's answer is Malik Hooker. Already I know we have a better GM with one pick.
And this isn't to say TJ Green should be gone. We surely can find a place for a guy his size and speed. Just not as the center fielder. Perhaps as the guy to watch the back out of the field. Because that is how you beat the cover 3 with a speedy back out of the back field.
