Is this just a flexible rule of thumb, or do we want Butler to be ****y? I kind of like his humble style. Do we have examples of corners who were amazing, but humble? Darrell Green comes to mind. I think he was extremely confident, but wasn't a jerk or even particularly selfish. But he was an amazing corner.
But people here know more than me about everything football related, so just curious what the football PhD's think...
