CBs are suppose to tackle....
Deion Sanders made a living by playing soft, making big interceptions, returns etc. and he is said by many to be the best CB to ever live.

Not a chance.

a list i found from before the 2010 season

10. Jabari Greer, New Orleans Saints

Rarely gives up completions. Can cover inside or outside no matter if it’s man or zone.

9. Leon Hall, Cincinnati Bengals

A key in allowing Bengals defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer to be aggressive with his front seven.

8. Dunta Robinson, Atlanta Falcons

Doesn’t make a lot of interceptions, but doesn’t give up a lot of completions either.

7. Domonique Rodgers-Cromartie, Arizona Cardinals

Ascending third-year pro who started drawing Revis-like assignments down the stretch last season.

6. Champ Bailey, Denver Broncos

Not impenetrable but still capable of matching up with opposing teams’ best receiver each week.

5. Asante Samuel, Philadelphia Eagles

Consistently baits quarterbacks as the best off-coverage defender in the game.

4. Cortland Finnegan, Tennessee Titans

Has textbook fundamentals. Big plays and a feisty demeanor make him shutdown caliber.

3. Nnamdi Asomugha, Oakland Raiders

Is often asked to play pure man coverage with little to no safety help.

2. Charles Woodson, Green Bay Packers

Jack of all trades who somehow gets better with age.

1. Darrelle Revis, Jets

If you need an explanation …

Wait, What About….

Antonio Cromartie, Jets

Not close. Doesn’t play hard in zone coverage or against the run, and has poor technique.

Corey Webster, Giants

Worthy of Top 10 status; those who put him on their list would probably have him in slots 8, 9 or 10.

Antoine Winfield, Minnesota Vikings

Isn’t exactly young anymore. Was hurt and struggled down the stretch in ’09.

DeAngelo Hall, Washington Redskins

Overpaid and overhyped. Ever seen the guy tackle?

Quentin Jammer, San Diego Chargers

Solid starter, but you probably wouldn’t think of him if he didn’t have such a catchy name.

IMO Nnamdi is easily #1 over Revis. hard to tell because no one would dare throw at him

do watch asante play? he does that in run support. hes fine tackling receivers.
Ok? What point are you trying to make?

I'd rather try to take down a receiver than a running back.

A play he was hurt on and a receiver no one can keep up with, great examples

Not to mention the whole Jets defense is built to force them to throw at Revis.

Having Dunta Robinson on a list a terrible Rockstar.

Have fun with the inferior CB
It's not like you have to give up much talent going either way with them.

Why do you make it sound like Revis is on another playing field? It isn't that way at all. Nnamdi is an absolute stud, and excels so damn well in pass coverage. The numbers don't lie.

I'd take Revis just because hes younger.

If they were the same age.

Nnamdi would be on my team.
