Both were good against the run, but questionable against the pass. It was never exposed because of the QBs in the league. Hell, Dre had two career Interceptions.

INTs are not the be all, end all stat for DBs...Gerod Holliman led the NCAA in picks with 14 last year and was the Thorpe award winner...he was drafted in the 7th round. And CBs that are questionable against the pass in their collegiate career don't get drafted in the 1st round by NFL teams...

And Dre had 3 career INTs, but that's beside the point...he also had the same number of career (college) pass deflections/passes broken up (19) as Darelle Revis...and Revis wasn't exactly playing against future stellar NFL quality QBs when he was in college either...and no, I'm not saying Dre is at Revis's level as a CB, he's not...
