CBs need to step up!

Well, sometimes you can only polish a turd so much... and it still looks like dudu. Mike McKenzie was overrated. He had ONE good year with Green Bay then demanded more money. When a struggling Green Bay lets go of a cornerback, you have to figure the guy has issues. Cancer problem in the locker room or not, he is just too inconsistant. Sadly, he is our best option at CB, which isn't saying very much. I always liked Fred Thomas, but he lacks size and hands. He makes up for it in effort and savvy, but as long as we have problems with the #1 corner, Thomas will continue to be overwhelmed. Jason Craft has no business playing in the NFL. He is a liability even at Nickle.

Most people point to the linebacking corp over the past 5 years as our area of most need and worst play. I have to say Cornerbacks in that timespan rank right up there with them as God-awful. Why we haven't pursued a high caliber corner in free agency is beyond me. Lord knows there have been plenty of good corners switching teams the last few years. Hopefully now that the culture of the team is changing, it will be easier to attract better free agents in the offseason.
