Quote:I agree with most of your input, however you fail to include the rookie factor. To believe that Ramsey and Jack can come in year 1 and shutdown teams #1 and possibly #2 options in the passing game, would be foolish.


You have to account for the trial and error. They both are gonna make mistakes.. Thats just what happens as rookies learn the game on a nfl level. I do potentially, down the line seeing them becoming the players that you see them as.. But right now its too soon to believe this, not without letting them grow as a player first and then speculate...

 

This is actually not foolish. Yes, they'll make mistakes. But their ability (especially their physical traits which is freak-like) will allow them to. Corners and linebackers are positions in the NFL that you can ask a rookie to come in and make an immediate impact. You will likely need to simplify things for them, but if they have the physical capability (as these two should and do) it makes it easier. This isn't QB or even DE.

 

Rookie corners, especially good/great ones have come in historically and performed immediately.
