CB is a hard position to predict sometimes....Do you want the guy who stops the most passes or a guy who they don't even throw near? I think Dee is great, but is it better to lead the country in that stat, when other CBs may not have as many defended because QBs don't throw their way?

I want the guy that doesnt let his guy catch the ball regardless of what happens...which is what Dee does.

it's true that this stats don't matter as much for a corner. The most telling stat would be passes completed against relative to pass attempts against.

Having said that, i'm sure milliner is up there if not better than banks in that stat as well. What will get him drafted higher is that he is an elite cover guy with better measurables than banks.

Personally, i'd rather the QB throw it at my corner that's going to get a hand on it than not throw it at him period. More of an opportunity for tipped balls and interceptions
