DeIon Sanders was a shutdown corner.... and "DeRon Blanders" is a possible nickname, (possibly an easy reject though... :lmao2:) He's top of the league in pass breakups and similar statistics, and is on pace to shatter the pick 6 record in the NFL.

Soo..... Has Dallas' 5th round pick ascended to shutdown corner status?
he is Agent 6

What's his pass defensed number? I never viewed him as a lockdown corner. I saw him more as a ball hawk like the patriots old Asante Samuel's. They peel off their coverage and go after the ball. That's dangerous and could lead to big plays for the other team as well. But some corners have that ability without getting burned too much. Bland like Samuel's seem to be in that line of CB.

DaRon "Never" Bland

Works two ways: He's not Bland and QBs should never throw his way because it's going to get you burnt.

He got beat a few times today. He had Trevon Diggs type of game. He gave up a few plays and made a monster play.

As weird as it sounds.....a nickname just sticks with someone. You don't force it. And something about Deron.....I feel like he doesn't want or need a nickname. His name speaks for himself. He's not nasty, he's not a bragger.....he just wakes up and plays football. Kind of....bland lol. Yet, he's arguably one of the most electrifying players in the league lol. Just a silent assassin.
He was pretty humble in receiving the game ball.
