Not the point.It's not a binary on or off, it's more or less. When the other DBs are more likely to leave their players more open, you're less likely to get thrown on.

4.5 targets a game means he's giving up 47.7 yards per game to the oppositions #1 though right? I didn't watch him, but also didn't hear he was stinking up the joint either.
You’re wrong!!!!He’s wrong on just about every player he says something about.

Wow. I didn’t think Byron did that poorly in Miami. Guess that’s a win for us?
We still get 3rd compensation right ??
Byron , Ramsey and Chido sounds even better. Sprinkled in with some henry and No Jaylon. Dang what could have been lolI didn't watch miami games this year, so not sure how he played, but it doesn't matter. Qb's didnt throw at him here. I would have rather have Byrons contract over Zekes. Byron Diggs and Cheeto sound really good in hindsight
I don't buy Byron was the worst starting CB in NFL.
I could name and recall several CBS starters in 2020 that was vastly more terrible than Jones
this is where some can twist and mislead others with certain selected stats.
if teams are targeting Xavier Howard more than Jones, it can been viewed as Howard is more suspectible to surrender plays than Jones
but despite being a give some/take some type CB, he clearly has a knack for gathering INTs than most CBs,
10 Ints is a heckuva huge number for a DB.
So long as you keep Jones in a press jam role and scheme, he'll be a suitable man coverage that you can win with.
But he will absolutely Never give you turnovers and INTs - it may mean very little to some fans , ..and teams
Thus that's why the Dolphins immediately may him highest paid CB in NFL … and why the Cowboys decided not to re-sign the former No.1 pick.
.
He wasn't Miami's #1 corner. He was their #2 guy.
Byron Jones is a great player..
Problem is typical fan looks at the game with an ESPN Highlight / Fantasy Football mentality.
I mean Cowboyszone used to tell me Deangello Hall > Newman because of interceptions..
Cowboyszone used to tell me Merriman > Ware because of sacks stats.
Typical fan just doesn't know what they are looking at.
I figured with that contract he'd match up on the wr1. That said I dont know enough about Miami's scheme to know if their CBs shadow or flip sides or stay on one side.
In either event I still look at 47 yards per game as a win, even if you are on the wr2 all game.
