Default Rodney Harrison: "Asante Samuel is hands-down the best CB in the league"

Quite the compliment for a former teammate who left for money, also considering the fact Champ Bailey will be on the field tonight.

Overpaid system CB, one of if not the best in the league, or somewhere in the middle?

Second best in the league.

Our secondary is garbage now.

Interesting comment.. coming from someone else would question it, but Harrison played along side of him.. what was the source???

The best CB in the NFL plays for the Raiders.

Too early to tell where he stands. Needs to at least play out the season. Has played pretty well so far.

There aren't many that have had substantial success after leaving the Pats for bigger $$ in the Belichick era.

No doubt. Asomougha really looks like a beast out there - great size and speed. He's one CB I would fork over a lot of $$ for.

No offense to Rodney, I still think Asante is overrated and every time I've seen him play this season he's gotten beat. His defensive metrics were average with the Patriots, in some instances, not much better (or even worse) than his much maligned counterpart on the other side of the field, I'll be interested to see how he fares at the end of a season in Philly.
