“honey badger” was able to make the plays he made b/c of Claiborne. With a corner like Claiborne, “honey badger” could afford to gamble more….

Not sure what position Mathieu plays but, I do know that in the BCS title game Mathieu got torched and Alabama stayed away from Claiborne! My Vikings NEED to pick him! I don’t think they can trade down to #6 & still get him, someone will pick him before then.

Not a chance in hell that this guy gets by Tampa at number 5.

Umm yeah @vonmiller58 while mathiue does play all over the place , to call someone an idiot because he said the honey badger was a corner is kinda showing u to be the idiot. Not only is Tyrone listed as a corner by lsu but at 5’9 180 he’d be a bit of a joke trying to play safety even at the college level.

Claiborne is not only the best corner in tha draft but as far as being a cover guy he is better than Peterson. PP is just a much better athlete all around.

Any team that gets this kid will have 10 year pro bowl type talent.

vonmiller58 –

dude is listed at CB on both espn and lsu’s roster. he played plenty of nickel corner in the nat champ and got smoked.

@vonmiller58
a) does diff positions in diff packages
b) started @RCB > LCB/FS/SS combined
c) LSU’s website = “postion: Cornerback”

“Funny, all the analysts were talking about “Honey Badger” Tyron Mathieu, and he wasn’t even close to the best corner on the team.”

——————–

That’s because Honey Badger isn’t a corner dummy, he’s a safety.

The Bucs draft at #5 and are badly in need of a CB…
