That does not necessarily pass my eye test.  But it is not a stretch to say that according to the numbers Marcus Peter, Stephon Gilmore, Jason McCourty, Richard Sherman, Chris Harris, and Jaire Alexander are all producing better at the corner.  That doesn't mean Ramsey stinks.  It just means he's not Deion or Reavis or Champ Bailey or Ty Law or whomever the other greats were.  It's ok to be good, really good.  But shutdown?  No.  That's someone justifying their take.  The numbers don't agree.  And neither does the eye test.

Probably has something to do with Ramsey missing games...

The No.1 guy on their list only had 50 more snaps than Ramsey.

Over the last 2 season, Ramsey just seems inconsistent at times, primarily when he feels that he is not matched up against an elite WR. He definitely steps up his play when going against the best, and varying times for big moments. But the the great CB's do that and then roast the non-elite WR/QB with monster games and huge plays consistently. I can honestly only think of a few games that Ramsey took over, and I'm pretty sure the Jags didn't even win the majority of those games.
