bananathumb Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 I like to hear someone called "a player", even if it is by Dick J. That is what separates guys. Although I do not doubt that Reggie Corner is a player, I see that he is only 5'9" and 175 pounds. Is that really big enough in the NFL to stop even the slot receivers, let alone the Randy Mosses? Oh well, maybe size doesn't matter at CB. Anyway, are there - in your view - any others players on the Bills? That is, guys who just play beyond their size and speed? I can't think of many, but here is my list: McKelvin Schobel K. Williams Jackson Reed McGee Hopefully, Reggie Corner turns out to be another Terrence McGee. I'll be satisfied with that.
Hossage Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 I saw him around town the other month, and I got the distinct impression that he isnt bringing down any big guys in the open field.

Thats what they said about Leanhard I saw him make some very effective tackles on much bigger guys last year. Tackling as about technique as well as size, so if you have speed that can make up for a lot of lack of size.
DanInUticaTampa Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 winfield, for being a small guy, could tackle really well when he was with us

Coach55 Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 winfield, for being a small guy, could tackle really well when he was with us Exactly. He was only 5'9'' 180 and was one of the best open field tacklers at corner we've ever had.
zazie Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 Exactly. He was only 5'9'' 180 and was one of the best open field tacklers at corner we've ever had. He took everyone down, quick and effortless looking. A football player.

Jabari Greer was only 5'10 176lbs and did a pretty good job covering bigger WRs.
stuckincincy Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 winfield, for being a small guy, could tackle really well when he was with us I always wondered why they didn't move Winfield into a safety spot.
zazie Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 I always wondered why they didn't move Winfield into a safety spot. Because he was a great, often shutdown corner, maybe?
Sisyphean Bills Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 I always wondered why they didn't move Winfield into a safety spot. He dominate in the box.
