OneTwoSixFive Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Let us appreciate what he actually does this year, when he does it. Actions - Words - you know what I mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoremore Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Hey I'll give him some props. Came in as a rook and kicked butt. Kid plays tough and is excellent in coverage. 1st year in and already our best corner. Love his attitude as well. Great pick just a great pick.

{Family Ghost} Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Hope he can avoid the minor strains this year .. need him on the field every week. He's a legit pro bowl talent if he can stay on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would add the word "present" in front of future - he's already arrived and kicking butts all over the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boratt Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Clark and Alexander are our budding stars. I know this rarely happens, but if Gary and Savage somehow turned out to be probowl caliber players too, our defense could be top 5 in short order!

skibrett15 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Feels like JA is over-appreciated here tbh. Promising rookie. Probably can't ever cover a tall fast WR though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably can't ever cover a tall fast WR though. Agree whole-heartedly with the first and second statements. Disagree with the third. Not gonna sweat him going up against Julio Jones anymore than I'm gonna sweat any other DB. His feet and hops will make up for a lot of the height issues.

Rather have ____list your favorite #1 Corner here____ on Jones than JA because other guys are way more accomplished. JA is still 60-70% potential, and one day *could* be one of those players. My issue is folks here are considering him an NFL top corner going into the year. He's not Xavien Howard/Patrick Peterson, and he might never smell that level of play. But he *might* get there, so there's definitely optimism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No bigger advocate than me that there's a bit lower of a celing due to the lack of length when you compare him to the top end corners in this league. I'm also a big believer that some times a good damn football player is going to get the job done more often than not, even if the matchup isn't ideal.

{Family Ghost} Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I could be wrong, but I think Alexander will make the biggest jump this year on the team. He already had some top moments as a rookie, but with the experience he picked up last year coupled with an improved pass rush he's got a chance to be a true standout. He's going to trust his talent a little more as well and make some plays on the ball. I think the sky is the limit for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
