The TST staff has documented each offensive position and each defensive position leading up to CBs. Now, we look at one of the draft's most interesting positions.
Of course, everyone is well-aware of the Marcus Peters vs. Trae Waynes debate. Most see Peters as the superior talent, but it's Waynes who is more reliable. While Peters could be a star in the NFL, Waynes seems to be more of a lock to be a star. However, should Peters' attitude be kept in check at the NFL level, the sky is the limit for him. Let's see how TST sees it.
| Player | 1st Choices | 2nd Choices | 3rd Choices |
| Trae Waynes | 5 | 2 | 0 |
| Marcus Peters | 1 | 3 | 2 |
| Kevin Johnson | 0 | 1 | 1 |
| Byron Jones | 0 | 1 | 0 |
| Ifo Ekpre-Olomu | 1 | 1 | 2 |
| P.J. Williams | 0 | 0 | 1 |
Honestly, these results surprised me a little. Only one person had Peters as the best CB and that same number of people had him not in the top three. Personally, I did choose Waynes ahead of Peters just because of character concerns, but I thought the gap would be closer -- maybe it would have been in a larger sample. Then again, I've seen Peters projected lower and lower in recent mocks so it is possible he's losing value.
After the top two this class still seems alright. One man I'll advise to keep your eyes on is Byron Jones. He's athletic -- no, he's more than that, he's a freak. Who breaks world records during the NFL Combine? Byron Jones does, apparently. I'm not entirely sold on his pure football ability, but he has the athleticism to do wonders in this league.
