So he fills but CANT SHED BLOCKS!!!??? or he fills and engulfs the guy like a donut????
Good in man coverage? WTF is good gonda do? Good is gona run with Marvin Harrison and let him catch the ball then tackle him? thats pretty good, he kept up with a high calibre WR, but he didnt SHUT HIM DOWN??
Most DB in the league can cover, a route. Especially if they play like 7 yards aways from the WR. I want a DB that will compete for the ball. A DB is only a shutdown corner if the QB knows that the DB will have the athletic ability to compete for the ball. If the QB knows the DB doesnt have the instinct to compete for the ball then he will throw against him all day long.
Bruinz, STFU.
MeSoSlo - Follow your own advice, you twit. Nothing like not knowing a damn thing and proving it to everyone.
GOOD is going to shut down most #2 receivers as he develops into a top flight CB.
As I said, maybe you should read everything that was said before asking questions because its CLEAR you are clueless. You don't understand talent evaluation worth a damn.
You clearly have a reading comprehension problem. I addressed SPECIFICS of your questions only to have you be a tool and go off on another tangent. You asked how he plays against the run. In Seb's post, he said that Cason fills hard. That means he gets in there and can make plays. I did NOT address the shedding blocks question.
If a college player is GOOD in Man coverage, but even better in ZONE coverage and reads plays well while having good hands, then its a good bet he'll do more than just let the receiver "catch the ball and then tackle him." And, if you actually had looked at the guys stats, you'd see he's got a good # of passes defensed as well as interceptions even though teams weren't throwing to his side.
No CB comes out of college and is immediately a "SHUT DOWN" corner. Hell, your own definition proves that by you stating that "A DB is only a shutdown corner if the QB knows that the DB will have the athletic ability to compete for the ball." The only was a QB is going to know that is if the player builds a reputation. That takes time.
MeSoSlo, please get an education because your reading comprehension is truly deplorable. As I said initially and you've proven, if you had actually read Seb's post, all your questions would have been answered.
