But it wasn't start speed that was the problem, it was disengaging physical CB's. I think thats a physicality problem, not a first jump problem.

Wouldn't first jump quickness and power be the key to preventing full engagement making disengaging easier?

As an offensive lineman I went up against bigger and stronger linemen but I was quicker to get out of my stance, load hands and get my power underneath me.

If a WR can get in a CBs face quicker he isn't taking on 100% of that CBs momentum.

ESPN Triplett: Trent Dilfers thoughts on New Orlenas Saints-Seattle Seahawks - ESPN

On whether the Seahawks are as good as any team in the NFL today at disrupting receivers’ routes:

Dilfer: “Yes, Pete [Carroll] and his staff have done a great job in kind of bringing back the ‘80s secondary play. And I know they’re gonna deny this, but there’s no denying it -- they’re convinced that the refs are only gonna throw about 15 flags a game. And they’re not gonna throw all 15 of those in the secondary. So they might get four to six thrown on ‘em. But they figure, if a team’s gonna throw the ball 40 times and we’re gonna get physical 40 times, they’re not gonna call more than six [penalties]. So they’re really playing the odds with how they play in the secondary.
