Jets Draft Dee Milliner 9th, the Alabama Cornerback Who Will Replace Darrelle Revis

He’s had five surgeries, and might not be ready until August, but he also ran a sub 4.4 40, and probably is the best cornerback in the draft (depending who you talk to). I have some reservations about Alabama cornerbacks, mostly because they play for such great defenses. The last few out of Alabama – Jackson, Kirkpatrick – haven’t looked great in the NFL.

Milliner should instantly start ahead of Kyle Wilson, who is pretty clearly a bust.
