    why did Gaines go in the 6th rd? 5’9 7 with 30 3/8 arms with mediocre pro day..while other top prospects were spending 3 months prepping for combine Gaines was rehabbing…his numbers weren’t the player I watched at Mizzou

    my write-up on Gaines; 120. EJ Gaines 34 pd 7 interceptions CB Mizzou fast/instinctive a “player”

    Richard Sherman went in the 5th rd..a college wr till junior season..but had 23 pd and 6 int in 2 years while learning the position . 6’3 with long arms, 38 vertical with 4.72 3 cone(better then all the top 5 except Roby 4.69)…even with a 4.54 40 should of gone much higher……

    cb position just lends itself to number crunching…just add some Kentucky windage for injuries or teams avoiding an elite player his senior season so his stats go down(like Gaines)
