Booth and Cine

Sounds like Cine is going to play this week, hopefully a fair amount. I
don't think this new staff is dumb enough to use a first round pick on a
guy they plan to mostly sit for a season or God forbid multiple
seasons. Especially at Safety. If that's the case then it was a bad
pick unless he steps on the field and is an All-Pro year 3. But I don't think that's what's happening. I think Cine is going to get on the field a
ton, starting in the next couple of weeks.
Booth- hopefully he can get healthy soon. I'm worried how well Pat Pete is going to hold up. Akayleb Evans did look solidish to me.
EDIT- Also, if the plan all along was to redshirt a guy for a year or possibly two, then Jameson Williams reeeeeally should have been the pick at 12 instead of Cine at 32. Again, this is why I disagree with some fans and I do not think this is the plan.

What are you talking about?  Bradbury has taken the torch as the next in a long line of great Viking centers.  1st rounders always turn out.

Booth wouldn't be injured now if Zimmer were still the coach, dammit....because he'd be sitting on the sidelines all year watching Bashaud Breeland throw up all over the field... :p

I think the Cine pick mentality was to have a back-up for an older Dirty Harry, go big 3 @ safety for now. 

And be Smith's eventual replacement at the SS position.  Bynum is a free safety.

I don't know there's much difference with the safeties in today's NFL. You need to be able to stop the pass as Job #1.

Not sure who's not enjoying Harrison, what the discussion was is why was Cine drafted. The answer: to replace Smith ultimately. And yeah, he has to prove that is something he can do.
