Is that really controversial? He clearly was. After him you had Cyrus and Minkah.

And he clearly is our best corner this year.

Minkah is a great playmaker, but Marlon is the shutdown guy.

I think he's finally starting to get his due, but it amuses me when announcers act like Minkah will be the guy who has the assignment on the other teams' stud receiver.

NFL scouts are presumably paying more attention than the announcers.

Disagree. Cyrus was better imo.

Some of you may remember how high I was on Marlon during the recruiting process.

I think he was way better than a RS Freshman had any business being in Saban's scheme. Last year he was good, really good, but I'd say Cyrus was a little bit better.

Marlon this year is going to be shutdown though. As good as CJ became, he was never that shutdown guy. I look forward to seeing Marlon take on some of the great WRs we have on the schedule.

Marlon was good last year, and could be great this year, but Cyrus was the best corner on our team last year.

How about that hit that Marlon put on that RB though? That dude had probably never been popped like that. Was awesome.

Cyrus was battling the studs though... And made the big plays in big moments. Marlon looked more consistsent because he was covering 2nd and 3d options.

No doubt he's a stud. No sense in arguing about that... Another 1st rounder, RTR

I know he didn't have far to go but during his pick six he was gone in two steps. This kid is so freaking fast. Beast.
