why do they insist on Calling Champ a "Cover Corner?" He is a corner, a complete corner, there's no reason to add qualifyers to his position.

Pretty good list without really anything to argue about.

Let's hope Jay, Marshall and DJ join that list next year.

Forget Marshall's offfield problems for a second. On that list there are only two WRs I would rather have than Marshall. Randy Moss and Andre Johnson. Now if we have to take age in consideration than that leaves just Andre Johnson...... You know what...... I will keep Marshall over him too!!

Especially with Johnson's injury issues.

Marshall has the tools to be the best, and he has showed flashes of dominance over his first two seasons.

Nobody (except for Champ Bailey) expected him to be this good.

Great point. And what I'm most impressed with is his hands. He catches EVERYTHING. When a young WR catches the ball that well you kno wthey have a great work ethic. Hopefully these incidents will be just a blip on the screen as they are inducting him into the Hall of Fame.

It's funny that Mario Williams made the list.

When Kubiak said "no thanks" to the Bush hype machine, it became as clear as day that Williams was the best player available in that draft. The guy's a freak.

Williams will be good for years to come, and Bush will continue to disappoint New Orleans fans.

I'd take Boldin or Fitzgerald over Marshall.

Did Marshall play his rookie year? No, because he was injured.

Did Marshall stay healthy all of last year? No because he was injured.

Is Marshall likely to stay healthy this year? No because he is a dip**** off the field AND he is the only real threat to kick ass at the WR position in Denver.

Andre had a rough year last year but that guy is not an injury concern.

I dont see how you could take Marshall who has been injured MORE than Andre AND has off the field problems over Johnson who has had a better year on a worse team than Marshall has.

Andre Johnson > Brandon Marshall (right now, subject to change without notice).

Granted he has the benefit of a thumping defense and strong rushing attack, but he doesn't play check-down football like Brady did his first 5 years, and he can prolong a play better than anyone since McNabb was healthy circa 2004 and he KNOWS WHAT TO DO WITH THE FOOTBALL.

I absolutely love everything about the guys game, and it's about time it was a good player wearing number seven since John left... all the Vicks and Leinarts make me sick with 7 on. If we didn't have Jay, he'd be the ONE guy I'd want under center in a Shanahan system.

I agree...he seems to be a pretty good guy off the field as well...also i think merriman and allen are a little to high on the list considering the other guys on the list there in front of like Steve Smith etc.
