Montez Sweat has a long way to go.

Some in the front office felt Haskins was raw for a #1 pick but he has the physical skills in re arm and accuracy.

The preferred pick of the FO, Montez Sweat who we were able to pick later in Round 1 seems to need as much or more development.

His size and speed didn't show through yesterday.

He played upright and was easily blocked especially against the run.

I wonder if at 6'6 and with 4.4 speed if there is an NFL player in the shell of who is by all accounts a great athlete.
