He's a badass in your face kinda of player that plays on the fringe of violence and dirty.

If you're looking for attitude, trust me, you found it.

He hates.

I dunno about hands, but he makes Browner look like a wuss when it comes to kicking somebody's teeth in.

That's not the point - it's like KMajor said

That keeps the ball in the passer's hand a split second longer and - WHOOSH!!! BAAMM!!! K-SPLAT!!!, defensive line forces ball loose and the turnovers are twenty yards upfield like the Dome Patrol days...hopefully...

He isn't better than Breaux. A 32 yr old 7th rd pick that pass his prime that provide experience ONLY to a very young set of corners

Brian Dixon 3 yrs
Damian Swann 2yr
PJ Williams 2yr actually 1st
Delvin Breaux 2yr
Crawley rookie
Harris rookie

What does 7th round matter at all to a player that has been in the league that long. Brady was like a 6th round pick. Does that matter one bit at this point in his career? I see him doing like Sharper. We would not have won it all without him.
