This deserves it's own thread.
Go to the 2:10 mark here:
This is seemingly one of the first plays of team drills yesterday, which would imply that Bland is actually our CB4 and that he's moved into the starting trio with Lewis out. But aside from that, on this play the guy is carrying Mike Williams ($20M/year extension, easy top 20 WR in the league) across the field, which is difficult in the first place, then highpoints the ball running at full speed to nearly pick it.
That'd be an awesome play from Diggs or any other Pro Bowl CB, let alone a rookie late round pick.
To be flashing like that this early in camp and the preseason makes me think he could be a possible future starter and one of our best day 3 picks in the last 10+ years, along the lines of guys like Schultz, Scandrick, Ratliff, Anthony Brown, Hitchens and Cedrick Wilson (not going to include Prescott here since the value of a franchise QB on day 3 is in another world).
