Happy with McKinstry, Wiggins or Johnson-Powers.

 

Pass on McKinstry. He was very inconsistent last season.

Huge help to the DB room. Humphrey, Stephens and Wiggins with Williams and Hamilton on the back end. Defense patched it's only glaring weakness.

Need to load on on the line tomorrow.

Forgot Dejean was out there still too. Kind of preferred him to Wiggins, but still happy. Whoever lands Dejean is getting a hell of a player as well.

Don't know much of anything about him, but can never have enough secondary help.

Corner was a bigger need than people think on the surface. I think Marlo is slowing down. Might not be here much longer. At least not a high end CB

Been saying it all offseason. Even with the Moses trade, CB was just as big, if not a bigger need. Board fell perfectly for one of their needs.

Dont know if the broadcast was behind a bit or not but the broadcast didnt have the Ravens on the clock very long. Maybe 30 sec or so. Usually the Ravens like to wait and see if they get a call. If they turned the card in very quick it tells you it was a player they really liked at the spot.

DeJean is a much better tackler and run-supporter. That's not really part of Wiggins' game. But a 4.28 forty is a 4.28 forty.

Sounds like he's super athletic, but not very physical and weak in run support.

I guess he's fine.

DeJean is white. No thanks on that at CB. Especially in round 1. Already talk he moves to S too.

Slide saying I guess hes fine is essentially a ringing endorsement. Ive never seen a bigger hater on draft days/nights.

Wiggins is smooth in and out of his breaks thanks to his speed and athleticism, and he can blanket receivers on the perimeter. Baltimore loves defensive players with physicality and toughness – both of which I need to see more of from the Clemson cornerback.

Overview
Wiggins’ combination of coverage talent and traits could make him a defensive coordinator’s dream. He’s tall, long and fast with rare recovery speed when beaten. Silky smooth lower-body movement allows him to mirror releases and trace routes without much effort. He can squeeze a little tighter from off-man coverage, while his range as a Cover 3 cornerback makes him a dangerous option to throw near. He plays with good recognition and elite burst to the throw, which could lead to Pro Bowl production if he can play with more consistent decisiveness. He needs to become a tougher player in run support and when contesting catches against NFL size. Wiggins' speed, scheme versatility and playmaking instincts should make him the most sought after cornerback in the draft

Weaknesses
Too much cushion allowed in off-man coverages.
Tardy timing to flip and run with the route allowed deep-ball opportunities.
Face-guards deep balls, leaving too much catch clearance for the target.
Still room for additional aggression and decisiveness in attacking throws.
Awareness and effort was disappointing in run support.


“He has better physical talent than Devon Witherspoon, but he doesn’t have that same level of dog in him. That’s probably the biggest difference right now. I think Wiggins is the better prospect, though.” - NFC national scout


Clown on me all you want, but other people feel the same.

I've been pretty complimentary of a lot of their draft choices, but it just feels like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. Wiggins might be a good player. Doesn't solve the problems that will probably end the Ravens' season.

Good luck finding anyone who watched Clemson and would describe Wiggins as a physical player. He's slight and has room to add bulk, so maybe if/when he does that he'll be a more physical player, but he's not that now.
