He's a hell of a playmaker, but a good cornerback he is not. He's coverage skills are not good. Why he was voted All-American at cornerback is beyond me.

He's a career NB. Randal Gay won 3 Super Bowls with New England and 1 with the Saints being just that. He'll translate to someone's scheme in the NFL.

I disagree. I think he's at least an adequate cover corner. He was in position to make plays. He's just too short to contend for a well thrown ball to a tall receiver. Norwood and Hanks are both probably 5-7 inches taller than Mathieu, and McCarron was putting the ball where only they could go up and get it.
