No he is not the best of them which is my point. You are expecting him not to do things that even top CBs do. He just had a solid game against NYG and us currently helping serve up a shut out. It’s hard for CBs because when they mess up on one play it sticks out to us fans. When Burns misses a wide open sack or when a LB misses a tackle or gap it doesn’t stand out as much. He is still young enough yo where mistakes are going to happen, but I wouldn’t cut him over it. Who do you want starting if he is cut? SOT? Taylor? 

I'm usually with you, Jimmy, but not on this.  No, I don't expect him to be perfect and I know corner is one of the toughest positions to play and they require some of the shortest memories due to the nature of it...  but even all that considered, he just isn't good.  I laid out all of the examples.  Teams do go after him and if all you can ever remember is bad plays after almost two full years, that's kind of your sign... 

And Taylor looked a hundred times better than him in limited opportunities last season, so yes, I would bench him for Taylor in a heartbeat.

I understand we can have different opinions. Taylor looked good early last year, but towards the end of the year teams were picking him apart. I trust Wilks on starting CJ from this roster. I hate they are playing him and Horn in a damn soft zone.

Respect.

And agree, Taylor did tail off, but I was still impressed with the overall body of work for a rookie.  I would just like to see more of him.

But I agree about Wilks' opinion and not understanding why we're playing soft with guys who have been touted for their man press skills.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
