I'll be honest and say I don't know. I like Butler but will admit I was really turned off at his lack of competition and ints during his uconn years. If he would of been picked in the first round I would of been rather mad. I would of much rather traded up for Jenkins but it just wasn't part of BB's plan.

I believe Bodden and Springs will be the best Cb's on the roster thi year and think that Bodden will actually be the gem of our of the free agent signings on the defensive side of the ball. Great,great moves while the young guys get ready.

Perhaps you're missing some info on Wheatley in the return game?

Butler 2008: 20 returns for 471 yds, 23.6 avg

Wheatley 2007: 37 returns for 919 yds, 24.8 avg

Jonathan Wilhite.

Oh, that's not one of the options.

In all seriousness, I believe Jonathan Wilhite could turn out to be a star. I went back, and watched tape of the last four games of the season. The man is good, especially man-to-man. He is a lot more physical at the line of scrimmage than you'd think.

Mark my words, Wilhite will start at some point this season.

I also obviously have high hopes for Darius Butler (and Wheatley to an extent). But of the two, I'd say Butler will have a better career.
