Toward the end of the year CJ was playing his best so your post confuses me.

Nope but we will now that Hookfin, I mean Hawkins is, damn I got tired of watching him get burnt.


Whoa now buddy, you're being too hard on Hawkins. I was one of his most vocal critics in 08, but he was a pretty good corner in 09. Cooper really helped him out. He was better than most people give him credit for. I have some high hopes for Morris Claiborne this upcoming season, but to automatically say that he is an upgrade is being too hasty.

you've noticed this from him not covering anyone ever?
Man to man I have seen him get burned or be late. If its a option, zone run, anything that is started laterally by the offense, Chad reads it fine.
I do feel Jai has better coverage skills and if he only has to play in a deep zone then yes I will feel good about him back there,
Will he bring the wood and TKO fools I doubt it. Will Jai have better instincts, i dont know.

,,and about run coverage, ask BT what its like to miss a tackle at the line.

It's a good thing when we lose NFL talent. Can't wait for all of them to leave so we can improve.

No, unless someone really good takes his position.

Jones played very well towards the end of last year.

Jai is way more efficient when it comes to coverage. He will be adequate on run stoppage. Will he lay wood, probably not. He will cover a hell of alot more ground . And he has better insticts than Jones had. Jones never really took his game to the next level. All the talent in the world though.

Who does "CJ" stand for? By the context of your statement, I'm assuming it cannot possibly be Chad Jones.
