Thank you. ^^Somebody watching the fucking game.^^Car Ramrod wrote: ↑Sun Sep 15, 2019 3:43 pm Davante got the best of him today. He let Adams run wide open at the end of the game to seal it for the Pack.
He almost always gets beat on crossing routes.
Since 2017 (30+ games) he only has 3 INTs. I am a Xavier fan but that doesn’t exactly scream shutdown CB.

Somebody here sell it to me that this guy is an elite corner? Anybody?
Then explain it to me how anyone can think this guy is the best corner the Vikings have ever had.
He couldn't hold Winfield's jock!

He was burned today. He's never been great vs smaller speedsters, but at least serviceable. His age is now showing but he's still elite vs larger Julio types.

Rhodes was legit elite a couple of years ago, maybe even the best. He's fallen way off though, obviously.

Re: Rhodes
He came up and took down the running back in a great 1 on 1 tackle yesterday. The play was called back for a holding call, but I liked the intensity he showed. He shuts down a ton of great receivers and many teams avoid throwing at him. Kind of skews his stats a bit.

The biggest ones were on him. He hasn't been a shut down corner for a year and a half now. He took himself out of the game after he gave up the last TD, and missed the 2pt play.

I think he is still an above avg corner, but he's lost a step, and is trying to make up for it by playing physical. That's going to continue to attract PI calls.
I think the Vikes release hm after June 1 next offseason. He will only be something like 2.8 million in dead cap money if they cut him after that date. Trae Waynes might get an extension.

Re: Rhodes
They gotta make it through the Redskins game.
Holton Hill will be back.
With Hughes, Wayne's, Alexander, and Rhodes you have some flexibility. Even Kearse can come in at corner.
Maybe they move Rhodes. Not sure what his value is anymore. Then extend Alexander.

Move him for a pick. Hard to do it now though obv with Hill soon coming back and Hughes working his way back.
Another prima donna who looks great in a t-shirt :nohomo: but thinks he’s better than he is, is too emotional and can’t forget the last play. We need the salary cap space. Give me hungry young corners.
He’s overpaid and one of the rare mistakes for Spielman in keeping him this year, along with extending Rudolph for 4 years lol.

Re: Rhodes
The thing is he is only 29. He should be peaking right now and should have another 2-3 years before he plateaus. Unless there is some injury that took away his speed he shouldn’t be in decline physically.Small Hands wrote: ↑Mon Oct 21, 2019 8:40 amThe biggest ones were on him.

Side question, why do you get your rocks off on him having a bad season? You seem as obsessed with him playing poorly as DH is with Teddy playing well.
