Info
1
Ron Bartell
Big corner at 6-1 and 209 pounds. Had his best year in 2008. Started all 16 games. Picked off three passes and was credited with 19 passes defensed. A player on the rise.
2
DeAngelo Hall
Former elite corner has been on a roller coaster the last couple of years. He was a Falcon, then a Raider, and finally a Redskin. Now might be looking for a fourth team in only the last couple of years. Looked awful in Oakland , but settled down and played well in Washington . Great talent, but buyer beware.
3
Bryant McFadden
He was the number three corner in Pittsburgh, but has enough talent to start for some teams. Also has good size. Picked off two passes this year.
4
Jabari Greer
Started 10 games this year. Picked off two passes and ran both back for scores. Solid player who is just entering his prime.
5
Phillip Buchanon
Former first round pick had some struggles in the past, but found a home in Tampa. Started 29 games over the last couple of years. Will struggle with some matchups, but has settled down and become a solid player.
