Antoine Cason is a lot like the other highly rated cornerbacks in this draft — ask five personnel people what they think about them, and everyone seems to have a different opinion. The Arizona cornerback, for one, believes he has a good chance to go high in the April 26-27 draft.
And if for some reason he happens to slide farther than expected, Cason, the son of former Oregon great Wendell Cason, has dealt with disappointment before quite well. After Oregon failed to offer him a scholarship, he became a Wildcat and put together quite a career, starting 46 games, intercepting 15 passes and winning the Jim Thorpe Award as a senior. Cason recently took time to chat with PFW about his father, his pre-draft visits. dining in Tucson and movies.

would love to see him here, another Sam Madison type but with better tackling
edit: there's also no one whose as been as all over the mock boards as Cason, he's everywhere from mid-first to mid-second. Those are million dollar swings -
If we take Jake at #1, and Cason falls to us at 32... I sure hope we take him! we need a corner badly!!! :up:

No way.....you dont say...:no: -
Antoine Cason may join join Randy Moss, Drew Brees, and Antonio Cromartie as the greatest Dolphins to ever be passed on.

Hey, you're right. I broke 2000 posts somewhere and didn't even notice! It may have been in KB's ranking thread.

Oh, plenty of guys. Everyone from Jason Rivers to Caleb Campbell.

I dreaded us facing Cason but I'd relish seeing other team face similar dread if he was on our team.
