I don't blame him, it's not a glamor position like RB is. Same with Joe McKnight, CB may be the better position, but you don't get a third of the glory compared to RB.



No doubt. If he wants to make bank, he'll play corner, but kids don't think ahead like that. McKnight was the same situation

When you get all the attention throughout HS playing a skill position, you don't want to give that up, even if it costs you money in the long run.

McKnight lost some money staying at RB IMO, he would have been a beast of a corner.

Hell, Rex Ryan said he looked pretty good at CB when they stuck him there during practices...
