I very rarely ever see Talib's name in these threads either. Is that because we don't think of him or is he overrated by some metric that I'm not familiar with?

There is no such thing as a shut down corner in today's NFL. The rule changes and the proliferation of WR position make it obsolete to pay any cb a huge amount of money.

There are seriously 10 or more WRs in today's NFL that are unstoppable by any of the current CBs.


Go look at who Verrett has shut down

Revis is trash now. Think I saw a stay where he's allowed 80% of targets to be completed this year.

Man, people did not like my Vontae Davis call but I didn't see anyone better last year.

Talib is really good at jumping routes, he takes a lot of risks. I'm pretty sure he is a big risk reward type corner and thats why. I could be wrong.

This sounds about right. He baits quarterbacks as the game goes on, and feasts on their mistakes. He's physical, plays with an attitude and isn't afraid to hit. He brings intensity to the defense.
