DryHeat,
Your thoughts on Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie ?
I absolutely loved him and his upside coming out last year and my dream draft was a combo of (DRC and Curtis Lofton), which was a real possiblity via just a small trade up in R2.
Check out ESPN today, the man is on the verge of greatness and to think how close he was to being a Patriot and the issues we currently have in the secondary now.
I know you and a few others were down on DRC before the draft, just wanted to get your take on him ?
"Pro Football Hall of Famer Darrell Green knows a great cover cornerback when he sees one, and he thinks he sees one wearing No. 29 for the Arizona Cardinals.
As endorsements go, this one trumps anything the Cardinals or anyone else might offer for Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, the player Arizona coaches and players call "DRC."
"I think he's going to be one of the great ones for a long time," Green said by phone Wednesday."
Cromartie is ascending the athletic heights of NFL greatness. Single handedly shut down one of most explosive WRs in football last weekend in Steve Smith, 6 picks so far and
he was just inserted as the starter in week 9. I know the Pats worked him out two days before the draft and were on the verge of drafting him and instead went with Mayo.
Don't get me wrong, Mayo has been great, but I guess one would have to compare the following (DRC and Curtis Lofton (great rookie year btw) vs Mayo and Wheatley).
I look at that and I am leaning towards DRC and Lofton. JMO.........
