Start, Roster, Cut: Cornerbacks Edition - Part One

Entering this week, everyone knew that cornerback was going to be a position battle royal for your Houston Texans. I know it's early in training camp, but that doesn't prevent us from looking at reports and tweets to get a sense of how we all are feeling about the position. We'll...

Projected Panthers 2009 Depth Chart: Cornerbacks

Since Richard Marshall was drafted in 2006, the Panthers have had the luxury of having "three starters" in their cornerback rotation, with Chris Gamble really stepping up his game and his consistency in the last year or so, and the steady (if sometimes burnable by good speed receivers) veteran Ken...

MHR University - Cornerbacks and Strange Geometry

I get a lot of e-mails, and here's one that really caught my attention: I'm trying to understand the connection and the differences between "press coverage" and "B&R". Much of the material I have read doesn't necessarily distinguish between the two. In fact, much says that...

Spring Preview: The Secondary, Part 2: Who Else Wants to Play?

Yesterday, we talked about Chad Jones and Patrick Peterson, who we at ATVS (the royal "we") expect to make up the nucleus of the Tigers' starting secondary. Now, we talk about the other players who want to be in that starting group. First, the veterans: From left to right we have junior...

Let's try a little depth chart action today. You're taking our current group of corners and one draft pick. That's all you're allowed. What you're then going to do is pick the starters and establish a pecking order for those guys. Assume that your cornerback pick is not in the first round and then...

Are The Falcons Considering Cornerbacks Early In The Draft?

There's so many questions that this Atlanta Journal-Constitution article raises. The first question is, what kind of article is this? It says at the beginning that our good Comrade Thomas Dimitroff is looking hard at cornerbacks and defensive ends, but that's never backed up by any direct...

Position Preview: Cornerbacks

Oh, hey, whaddya know? Aqib Talib is gone. I know, his departure to the NFL has gone relatively unnoticed, as he wasn't that good anyways, wasn't even taken in the NFL Draft, and has been completley out of the news thus far in his NFL career, both on the field and off of it. Oh, you're saying that...

Will Patrick Peterson Start This Year?

Patrick Peterson was the biggest recruiting "get" for LSU for the 2008 football signing class. He's probably the best cornerback LSU has ever signed. He has come to Baton Rouge and has done absolutely nothing to make people question his credentials. He is by all accounts the most ready-to-play...

Carlos Rogers recovering from injury and habitual misspelling of his last name

Even as the rest of his teammates join him in injury daily, the word today from various places is that Carlos Rogers is making big strides towards returning to the field. Before we get to that, I just want to stress how important cornerbacks are for a defense. We've previously gone over the trials...
