put this PFF summation of him as a signing somewhere-
Probably the only elite, blue chip player available in free agency this season, Byrd is one of those rare and coveted free safeties with the range, discipline and instincts to play as a Cover-1 safety. In the last two seasons Byrd has only earned a negative coverage grade in seven times and the lowest of those was a -1.0 grade against the Texans in Week 9 last season. His last “red” coverage (of only four in his career) came back in 2011.

Biggest thing that stands out to me is that even in Byrds worst year, he was never negative. So even at his worst, he was still better than Jenkins 60% of the time

Still have nightmares of Vernon Davis torching us, mostly MJ, in the 2012 playoff game.
Fumbles too.

My journey with Jenkins:
Draft: "Don't want him. LaFell burnt him for a TD in the NCG."
Rookie year: (started at CB due to injury against TB) "Man, he is really developing, best CB out there today"
2010: "He's no Shaprper, but it's only his 1st year at safety...Holy shite! He just stripped Dez Bryant!
2011: "WTF Gregg Williams? Jenkins is bad, but Harper frickin' sucks! Possibly the worst safety tandem in the NFL!"
2012: "Maybe Spagz is just putting him in bad spots. This is getting beyond ridiculous...Holy shite, did you see him run down Vincent Jackson?!"
2013: "Yay! We drafted a safety to replace Harper...Oh it's to replace Jenkins???...Oh now I see what a real safety looks like...Vacarro is a beast...GET JENKINS OFF THE GODDAMN FIELD!!!!"
2014: "OMG, Byrd & Vacarro may be the best safety tandem in the NFL!"
