My Brent Grimes Rant

Personally I like the idea of an athletic corner like Grimes being are number 2 guy. He makes interceptions and we need that, as whilst I think Dunta will take care of business on his side of the field he seems to be a knock it down knock them out style guy rather than a ball hawk. I think leaving someone like Owens in the slot is good when it comes to things like blitzes and laying the wood on some of the nippy slot receivers who might be shifty but aren't always up to taking a hit.

I think I would be happier knowing that the Coaching staff would make an adjustment if a team purposely lines their number one up against Grime-Time and tries to pick on him and does so with success that we would set Dunta to match corner on the number one, leaving Grimes on the next significant threat. Or alternatively bring Owens into the LCB spot because of his physical play and move Grimes to match on a slot guy.

I'd like to make it clear I have absolutely no problem with Grimes, I just want to see flexibility in adjusting to anything the O might do to create mismatches against our unit.

With Grimes and Owens I feel that it is the good version of pick the poison. Both guys do different things well and better than one another.
