[QUOTE="wist43, post: 608553, member: 9839"] Depends on what the "bad" things are... if he misses tackles b/c he's overaggressive - that's correctable; if he misses tackles b/c he takes bad angles - that too is correctable, but more difficult to fix; if he misses tackles b/c he's simply too small to compete?? That's a horse of a different color. The overall tape of Randall is of a guy who is small, and plays even smaller - that's impossible to overlook... unless, of course, you are the Packers - who discount physicality, and place a premium on speed and ball skills. Randall has decent speed, although I didn't see much evidence of a 2nd gear or makeup speed; and he has decent ball skills - everything else about him is either below average or very poor. He is a very poor tackler - not just a poor tackler - a very poor tackler. Packer nation may get all tingly over every TT pick, but a defensive player who is so fundamentally unsound at one of the essentials of the game is a serious red flag. He may turn out to be an okay nickel back, but I don't think he can compete outside, and his shortcomings are enough to say that he had no business going in the first round. I don't like the pick at all. [/QUOTE]
