Tipster19 Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Excuse me, I don't mean to interrupt the great CB debate but in that article, did it seem that Cato June could be a real possibility for us and our defense?

Lurker Posted March 2, 2007 Author Posted March 2, 2007 Ok.....in light of the above, would you consider a 1st round corner a wasted pick? Depends on who the guy is and at what slot he's taken...just like any draft pick.
Lurker Posted March 2, 2007 Author Posted March 2, 2007 Different players and positions are stars on different teams. I'm trying to think of one built around a CB. Any possibilities?
BillsVet Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 I've read over and over about the Cover-2 and its advantages. The bottom line is, by reducing the long pass, a team must be extremely precise with their short passing game. But you beat the Cover-2 by running the ball and maintaining possession. I know the CB's aren't called on, but what percentage are we running the Cover-2? And who do we have right now that can keep QB's from picking on them? If you draft a CB, what does that say for Youboty? McGee already has a big contract and it'd take quite a bit to sit him. I don't think there's a more fundamental thing about football in that you win in the trenches. Drafting CB's and WR's may look kinda glamorous, but it's the guys in the trenches that make those guys on the outside and in the backfield look good. If we go CB in Round 1, I hope by that time we've addressed the OL and DL. Because if we haven't, this is just another variation on what killed the TD regime-not addressing the lines first and making the sexy pick.
