According to the Sporting News NFL Preview they call Gino the best "cover safety" in the NFL.

Agree?

Also they have Tom as the best "touch passer". Seymour as best DE against the run. And, BB as best AFC coach.

I sure hope they didn't have a best NFL coach whose last name wasn't Belichick. Maybe they just had AFC and NFC ?

Wison was a stellar corner in college he's just adjusted it to the safety position. I agree with that. He great against slot receivers but sometimes struggles against TE's.

Seymour shuts down halves of offensive lines. Without a doubt correct.

Brady as best touch passer? I know he's good but really surprised it didnt go to Manning.

Right. The had John Fox as best NFC coach.

Well, now I'm off to paly 18 hoes. Maybe I'll get ranked as best touch putter.

This is not unique among safeties. When safeties average around 220, 6'2" and TEs average 260#, 6'5" you're going to have a mismatch. LBs should cover TE's close to the line. TEs that can break it downfield usually catch a bunch of passes no matter who is covering them.

I understand that but the thing is Wilson gets beat by the bigger name guys like Gates and Crumpler more than the regular TE's.

I just hope he has a better year with Rodney coming in at some point to stiffen his concentration against WRs and TEs. ONLY 22 days until training camp opens and this dreadfully long off season ends!!!!

5 Rings for Brady!!

Brady does have a better touch on the ball then Manning. Manning has one style of delivery that he really likes to use.

I think that Wilson, after last season, is not the best that the league has to offer at 'cover' safety, he is a little small and he is probably no better than Ed Reed, who obviously gets a lot more attention in most rankings. But he is close enough that a ranking can mention him without controversy. After all, when are these rankings ever 100% accurate?

Yeah Geno! Hes one of my favorite players, I keep telling my friend to shut up when he says Geno should be backup CB rather then FS.

well is there a link providing a list, or did the guy just say Wilson was the best and thats it?

I'd like to see where he ranked the other safeties in the league.
