CB? There are a lot of these guys I didn't see much of, but I did watch Apple a lot. I'm wondering if his success was due in great part to an amazing pass rush. If we're really shopping for a CB, shouldn't we look for a guy who did pretty good playing for a team with a crappy DL?

Seer.. excellent question. I think most NFL scouts are looking for certain traits in a Pro prospect at corner regardless of who plays in front of them. Technique, instincts, speed, tackling ability & job knowledge (knowing coverages). Even some of the better NFL team scouts can check all of the boxes on a player and still not have a feel for how they will do in a different scheme or pass rush up front.

I truly believe that level of competition & production are great, however those aforementioned traits, coachability (not sure that is a word) & ability are as equally important.

Great post! However, I must ask, is coach even a word on our defensive side of the ball?
