Dick Butkus and Gale Sayers were the #3 and #4 OVERALL picks in the draft. Both top 5 picks. Top 5 picks are EXPECTED to be great. Stevenson is a second rounder. Quite the difference in draft capital and therefore, expectations.

I agree. And Ric has persuaded me to wait another year on Stevenson. But, from what I’ve seen, I am doubtful about him. Wouldn’t you say eventual “solid starter” is the expectation for a second round pick, and we should see that potential in year #2?

I think he's shown flashes. He's gonna be targeted because he's the rookie in a, when healthy, strong secondary. Why wouldn't you go after him? We could do a lot worse than him at corner...thats evident by looking around the league.
