I think he will be our best CB by year end. I said that a couple months ago too.

I think he'll be our best corner as soon at camp starts.

I also expect to hear much more from Johnny Patrick too. |

I'm looking forward to hearing more on Patrick too. I didn't pay too much attention to him while some of you guys were talking about him towards the tail end of last year... hopefully he can nail down that nickel spot and show upside for more. |

Robinson obviously has the talent, but I just don't think he's a very good cornerback. He's alright in pass coverage, but I haven't seen a worse tackling cornerback since Deion Sanders. His favorite move is to dive in front of the ballcarrier and hope he trips him.

Greer had his fair share of Sanders-like tackles, as did Jenkins. |
