Nate Burleson,s top 10 SHUTDOWN Corners

superspynyg : 8/16/2017 9:44 am

On GMFB.
10 Norman 9 Peters 8 Vonte Davis 7 Talib 6 THE JACK RABBIT Jenoris Jenkins

He only did his #10-6 today. Rest will be later in the week.

DRC did not make top 10 but he was mentioned by Nate so he would be # 11.

There are 32 teams in the NFL each with 2-3 starting can (depending on system). To have 2 in the top 11 in a former good wr's eyes is awesome.
Let's not forget that Eli Apple is still coming into his own in year 2.

Norman is good,

Keith : 8/16/2017 9:48 am : link

but he's not a shutdown corner. I also believe that Jenkins will be rated higher next offseason after another full season of domination.

So the top 5 are

pjcas18 : 8/16/2017 9:51 am : link

Peterson, Sherman, and then? Bouye? Malcolm Butler?

?

Chris Harris Jr. is probably in the top 5 or should be.

Norman

A legend in his own mind.

Xavier Rhodes should be on there over Norman too. Norman is not a shutdown CB.

I'd prob put Slay in over Norman as well.

Agreed - Slay is excellent and very underrated.

Rhodes is legit, he's def top 5.

Keith : 8/16/2017 10:23 am : link

Talib is there too.

or should

Keith : 8/16/2017 10:24 am : link

be there.

Crazy to think about after fielding poor secondaries for so long

j_rud : 8/16/2017 12:12 pm : link

but if Jenkins and DRC remain relatively constant compared to last year and Apple makes a decent, not even huge but decent, jump in year two, that secondary is going to be ridiculous. And that's not even taking into account the All Pro monster in the making at safety.

Maybe not there yet,

slickwilly : 8/16/2017 12:17 pm : link

but Jalen Ramsey will probably be on that list in the next year or two.

Norman?

annexOPR : 8/16/2017 12:25 pm : link

Josh Norman?
if only he caught this ... - ( New Window )

Darby should be top 5

According to my friend who is an Eagle fan. Of course,
he did not know who he was a week ago.

He had 105 qbr against last year q and claims to be a playmaker with a whopping 2 career interceptions in 2 years

Next year

Apple will be in the top 5
