Ive played football at every level from pee-wee to arena football, and I know that being a cornerback in the NFL is not something you just start out being good at. I believe that Rogers did it pretty well last year and if he can do that well his first year think about where hes gona be in his third year. They are being asked to run as fast as you can and stop on a dime and change direction all in a matter of a mili second with no warning just going off of instict. A shut down cover corner-----thats gonna become a thing of the past. Dont sleep on Rogers. Smoot better feel lucky to play the role player. GO SKINS

rogers did go down in flames but so did everyone on that defense, rogers gets no more of the blame then anyone else,imo. smoot could turn out to be the #1 cb. if smoot beats out rogers for the #2 and springs goes down with an injury then smoot could be #1 and rogers #2. i don't like the sound of that but it could happen.


OK, I can get on board with that.

Look up the Youtube highlights of Smoot "covering" Steve Smith. No receiver has ever done that to Rogers.

Disagree with that?

haha, I've seen every CB be burnt at some point, so you want me to watch Smoot getting burnt by arguably the best and quickest WR in the game, that EVERY CB has difficulty covering? Yeah, that's a convincing argument.
I saw Rogers get burnt by crap wr's, so by your logic, I guess Rogers is horrible.
I don't buy that logic buddy. Getting burnt by the best, or getting burnt by the worst are not indications of how they actually perform. It happens. I know we exhault Green to godlike status, but yes, even Green got burnt on several occasions.

We're very lucky you have nothing to do with our scouting department... Or were you the one who vouched for Archuleta being on of the elite cover safteies in this league?

Why is that? Is Smoot not a Skin? Obviously someone thought he was worth bringing back.
I am just shocked at all the negativity that Smoot is getting from this site. So please be sure to make a public apology when Smoot does a great job for us.
