I mean, considering that Hayden has been graded among the very worst corners in the league every year...I could have just said every slot corner that was signed was better and it probably wouldn't be wrong. Sorry but I can't play revisionist history just because my fan biases want it to be different. He's been really bad his whole career, we signed him to a lot more money than many players who are better, and one good report from a team scrimmage of all things isn't changing like 4 years of history for me. Maybe, hopefully, it changes with maturity/health/elite surrounding cast...but it's going to take a good amount of regular season action to consider changing that opinion.

Please Source "Hayden is consistently graded as one of the worst corners in the league" umm last i checked he didnt allow a TD last year as Detroit's #2 CB. He played well last night save for one poor tackling attempt on Tedd Ginn Jr. He blitzed effectively from the slot. had good coverage on the night and showed the skills needed to play the nickel. I think people over glorify Colvin a bit. He was good but IRDT he was head and shoulders above Hayden etc.
