Steve Smith vs Champ Bailey. Who wins?

I agree with Orange, I don't think that Champ's groin is in good enough shape to hang with Smith. Especially as shifty and precise Smith can be in running his routes, I don't know if he could hang with him, unless they want to play a lot of zone coverage.

I think Smith will abuse the hell out of Bly though.

My blind homerism says Smith. Champ is still a top 10 CB at least. But he's not so good nowadays that QB's won't even look his way.

Jake will throw at him, I bet you $100. lol

He always trusts his guy to win esp. if it is Smitty.

Had he thrown better passes vs Nnamdi, Smitty would have had a few.

Champ will be more aggresive than most for a jump ball in the air, but I still think Smitty's determination is unmatched.

Dude with a recently busted groin ain't gonna be outrebounding a guy like Smitty who got a huge vertical leap. Smitty gonna get his. Count on it! And if Bly is on him, it's all good.

Good point. Smith also blocks well, runs great routes and does a great job after the catch. I really think that he would do well against almost any CB if our QB could consistently thread the needle. We all know that Jake does not operate that way so some CB's have an advantage in tight coverage because of that.

Our boy smitty will deff win, im not so sure he got absolutely burned against Aso from Oakland hard to tell Jake had an awful day. Smitty will win though, why wouldnt he? Hes the best WR in the NFL.

Neither funny, nor intelligent.

What's funny is Steve Smith has averaged 57 receptions, 820 yards, and 5 touchdowns a year. OVERRATED. Do not ever again consider him the best wide receiver in the NFL.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
