Step back? He has consistantly been one of the worst starting S in the NFL. Some like PFF graded him worst than Martin last year....yet he flies under the radar here in Panther land.

Oh yeah, in 2010 he forced some fumbles and people completely ignored the fact he couldnt cover or tackle someone in the open field.

Didnt look good. But it was the first preseason game and Rivera did single him out with pretty high praise on his performance in camp. So I won't put to much stock into it.

In all honesty, Rivera praised him last season and he still sucked. He also said Munnerlyn was the Steve Smith of defense. You see where this trend is going?

I don't recall Rivera praising him last season but if he did It wasn't to the extent of saying he's having a " outstanding, outstanding camp".

Wether he will capitalize from it remains to be seen, but that's high talk even if you consider Rivera a natrually complimentary coach.

As for Captian, those comments were based on his likeness to Smith as far as size, and tenacity goes, not talent. And from training camp reports I'd agree with him.

    • Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
    • Crosby will garner a haul in a trade. I would be reluctant to make that trade because of the following: 1. Our overall roster is awful. We cannot afford to be trading away valuable draft capital. 2. He isn't the best fit(IMO) for the scheme that Evero runs.  I love the player but it would really need to be at a reasonable deal and I think he is likely to garner an unreasonable price if he gets traded.
    • In terms of need, EDGE is currently #1. Our pass rush is near league worst levels. However, I don't subscribe to "need" based drafting. BPA all day.  We do need to dramatically upgrade over Scourton, Jones, Wonnum and Umanmielen. That is likely in the running for the NFL's worst two deep. Not saying all those players are bad, but I am saying 100% of those players are 2nd or 3rd stringers.
