Believe it or not....

I think this year's secondary will actually be BETTER than they were last year with PP.

Mathieu will have an unbelievable year. He will even eclipse Claiborne - because people will not throw at Claiborne as much.

Claiborne will have a great year, stun people with his athleticism at teh combine (like PP did), and be a top-2-rounds pick.

Loston is world-class physically talented and has finally come around to the mental side of the game.

And all indications are that Taylor is a great leader and a very solid verteran back there.

Brooks and Tharold Simon are experienced and talented as nickel backs and releif corners.

Add to that a ridiculous pass rush with a healthy Sam Montgomery, a freakish and unblockable Anthony Johnson, and Mingo coming off the corner.

Mark my words, by the end of this season, if they all stay healthy, the pundits will be talking about these guys as the best secondary in college football.
