Seattle Cornerbacks School for NFL

Interesting statistic.

Very interesting!

Not sure, but IIRC, that is roughly the size of the Seattle team cap.

Just imagine the number if Pete were a quarterback whisperer.

Pete's defense has revolutionized the league. No more 5'10" corners being the "most desirable" nonsense.

Since Cover 2 is also known as the "Tampa 2" defense, why isn't Cover 3 known as the "Seattle 3" defense (or a "Sea 3" if you want it to rhyme)?

Pretty sure anyone would have loved to have Revis, who's 5'11.

Yes. But taller corners were purposely ignored for years because they were thought to be too slow to play the position. No longer.

I've hated short corners going back to the Holmy days. Maybe too many times of watching Kelly Jennings being in position only to have the reciever he was covering always catch the ball.

Revis is the exception not the rule.

Are you sure about that one? The raiders had some great big corners. Rod Woodson was a big corner, Seahorn was white and 6'2 220. I don't know they got ignored really.

Top two corners in the 70s, Jimmy Johnson and Willie Brown both 6'1 and 6'2.

80s Mike Hayes 6'2, and Mel Blount 6'3. Even Deon was 6'1.

They were drafted high with expectations, not developed and were considered freaks, Pete as mainstreamed our typical type and made them formidable after everyone else passed on them.

Who are the five

Blackmon, Thurmond, Maxwell, Browner, and maybe Guy is considered in that.
