i totally agree with mike vick being the most overrated, i would love to have fred smoot back though he is a product of the system and him did williams system well.

be that as it may which the last season they were both here i like smoot outplayed bailey but bailey did primarily cover most teams number 1 reciever...so with that being said is smoot minnesota's top corner? i think the answer maybe no

Champ is at least a top 3 corner in the nfl. Just because he gets burnt a few times here & there, doesn't mean he gets burnt often. They usually don't replay coverage of a corner shutting down a wr, that's why we don't see good corners getting on tv a lot. Remember when deon was here? teams picked on him, not champ.
Saying a cb is overated because he gets beat sometimes is like saying a great pitcher sucks because he gives up a home run. It happens to all of them.

The premier running backs in this league will stiff arm any CB in this league. No cornerback is gonna lay out Larry Johnson or LaDanian. Smoot in our system would prove useful give us that extra few seconds of coverage to allow some of our blitzes to materialize. It remains to be seen .

All I know is I hope he looks like a turd on sept 11th.

Sorry, but I completely disagree with this thread. I thought Smoot was and still is a very good and serviceable starting corner. My opinion, I wished he was still here in D.C., but heck, I also wished Darrell Green was still here (in his prime mind you.)

[That Guy]

champ is over rated (he seems to figure out how to magically trip on the turf any time a WR beats him).

smoot is not the #1 in minn, its winfield. that doesn't mean he's terrible, but it really wouldn't be worth it for the skins to pay him what the viking were offering, unlike pierce.

Hopefully Fauria, just for embarrassment purposes. Yeah, I know, he won't be covering a TE but it would be hilarious.

Money must be on Santana.

whomever he happens to be covering at the time. he cant cover any of our wideouts

dmek just about every post you do makes me laugh my ass off. good stuff there....

[Monkeydad]

Oops.

I just saw the thread "Smoot's Future, 3rd ID SOLDIER" and thought he enlisted.

For a few seconds, I had some respect for the guy. I'm over it now.

[PWNED]

smoot was pretty good while he was here, but vikings fans have elevated him to being one of the top corners in the nfl.

i think not.

you know what i would take smoot again
