Corner back depth chart

[3irty1]

Bush did have a good game. Gotta give him credit where credit is due. Overall, he is prolly better than Sam Shields right now, but Sam Shields has significantly more upside.

Sort of like the debate of if burnett was healthy do you start him or bigby? Bigby is the better SS now, but Burnett has more upside.

That issue is solved though - clearly Bigby is the starter when he returns and obviously who plays nickle is mute in 2 weeks when Harris returns, as it will be harris or williams back to the nickle spot.

If I'm not mistaken won't Williams and Woodson be nickle? Harris needs to bump and run and doesn't have great speed to be a nickleback. Williams will probably be nickle, with Woodson going their occasionally because Woodson is moved all over the place.

The nickle back is just the third corner on the chart that comes in with the nickle package, it doesn't refer to where they line up. No matter who the nickleback is, Woodson will almost always line up in the slot. This puts the fastest guys on the outside or in Harris's case, a guy who's skillset is best used rerouting his man on the sideline. Harris's value drops significantly away from the sideline.

Last week, Bush worked the slot to keep Woodson on CJ the whole time so there are of course exceptions.
