Bradberry named highest rated corner by PFF

Recommended Posts

Highest rated starting rookie corner not highest rated corner- huge difference. How many rookie corners got as much playing time as Bradbury to improve as he did ?  Most rookies struggle and unless they get playing time, they don't improve that much. It is year 2 or three before they really get it.

Jalen Ramsey sure did. 

I think he was 8th overall. You realize that this is a big deal when you got a corner in the 2nd better than one picked in the top 10. 

And you're right - year 2 or 3 is the sweet spot. Bradberry is about to hit that year. Can you imagine how good he'll be soon?

Oh I think Bradbury really improved. I just hated that we didn't bring in a vet to start and let him rotate in so we wouldn't have started off 1-5.

So what you're saying is that most teams don't get to enjoy rookie corners playing at an elite level except for a year or two.  While we get to enjoy Bradberry being there for 3 more years on the cheap.  Sweet

i feel like no matter what we did roster wise we were in a mental and vibe funk point blank..  and the 0-1 start cemented it

Agreed.  And the falcons will be in that same situation next year.  Please let them open against the patriots

    • Seriously? A CB who missed all that time on his rookie deal and was also a top 10 pick when the guys picked right before and after have been studs. A RB our GMs tried to replace with FAs and 2nd rounders and two backup level players is one of the best drafts we’ve ever had? I’d argue that the 2011/2012 drafts were better even with just Cam and Luke/Norman. Here’s the drafts I think were better: 2017, maybe 2018, 2015, 2013, 2011, 2012, 2008, 2007, 2001, 2002 (just Pepp) I’m hoping 2025 is way better as well. Honestly, we’ve kind of sucked at drafting overall and that’s the only reason you can even remotely call Horn, Hubbard, Tremble and BC a good draft let alone one of our best ever. Good teams that draft well would laugh at that as a great draft. If you want to look at say the 2023 Lions draft, you’d get 4 stud/above average/average starters not just 3 replaceable starters/backups and a top 10 pick that missed half his games. That’s a draft that helps turn a team into a playoff team. Our record since our 2021 draft is 19-49. A best ever draft doesn’t go 19-49.
    • I remember when football was great.    Wasn't this century.  
    • Bingo. You can't pay that type of player elite franchise QB money. That average starter type player can excel when he's surrounded by top shelf talent in a great offensive system but pay him elite QB money and you're going to really struggle to surround him with the type of talent you need to carry him. You pay those elite franchise QBs because they can carry your roster. You can't pay guys who have to be carried. Bryce showed glimpses down the stretch last year. I really hope he keeps building on that. But before we back up the Brinks truck he needs to show that he's the type of QB who can lift up and carry the offense because when you pay those guys that's what they're gonna have to do.
