Newman, Jones, Henry = Best Secondary in NFL, yet we still have jenkins...

[Galian Beast]

Seriously I think we have the best secondary in the nfl with our set of top 3 corners alone. Adding Mike Jenkins just tops things off nicely.

Henry is the oldest corner on the team. I don't know how much longer he'll be on our team as a corner.

Newman despite his age is still YOUNG.

Mike Jenkins and Adam Jones are as young as they get.

This position is officially bolstered for a good while now. Not to mention potential in players like Ogelsby, Scandrick, and Ball.

This kid can really play too... Don't sleep on him...

They will most likely hang on to Henry until his contract is up after the 2009 season. Unless someone tries to get him in trade next season. He has two years left with 7 million in base pay left according to this old article.

It is pretty scary when you think about it....................for the other team.

I was actually more excited about the Scandrick pick than I was the Jenkins pick. Not that I am down on Jenkins at all, but to get Scandrick in the 5th was a steal when leading up to the draft some draft experts were saying he was a possibility in the 2nd. He has things to work on in terms of technique, but he is gifted athletically and if he puts it together then we''l have a steal there.

Secondary play is only as good as your pass rush...which should also be excellent:starspin

Well, the potential is certainly there, but I need to see it on the field first.

Exactly. I think the SB and the Colts D getting owned by the Chargers without Freeney was further clarifiction of that.



Elite pass rush with an average secondary>>>>>>>Elite secondary with an average pass rush

Are you saying that the Boys dont have a Pass Rush?

What about this guy?

Or this Guy?

you are spot on. i am excited as this was our weakness last year and it is now our strength, at least on paper.

If you're referring to me, I dont remember implying such a thing. I was simply stating an elite secondary is something you want. An elite pass rush is something you need. Im well aware our pass rush played at a higher level than our pass coverage last year.

I really think the Commanders drafted three passcatchers with their first three picks because of our secondary. Not that their receiving corp didn't need some new blood or anything, but there are other holes on their team that need addressing.

Giants also proved this to be the case.

I kind think Commanders drafted those guys because, they were at good value spots. Thomas and Kelly were both projected as first rounders. I doubt that they picked up a backup TE for any reason other than why we did -- again, good value.

That's why I said the SB. The highest scoring offense of all time against a depleted secondary that's average at best when healthy and despite Moss having plenty of openings across the field all night, Brady was on his back too often to tell. The Colts had the fastest D in the league and linebackers that were built for coverage and got owned by Billy Volek cause No Dwight = No Pass Rush.
