He reminds me of Jamar Fletcher.

If you're asking "who?" Exactly.

Link (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamar_Fletcher)

When Ron Dayne was Heismaning it up for Wisconsin (you should remember him, as he stole Ricky Williams' rushing record a season after weed man set it), Jamar Fletcher was the Badger's defensive stronghold. An undersized corner that seemed to always be in the right place to snatch up an INT, he had NFL scouts coveting his turnover machine self enough to be snapped up in the first round of the 2001 draft.

While he gives hope to us short people everywhere that we may be able to complete with you tall types... I don't think Honey Badger will be able to succeed at the next level.

I'm on record saying he will do something "Reggie Bushlike" to cost LSU the title. No, not have boosters/agents buy his folks a house.

Haven't read the link, but was is Mathieu that posted something about "it's all about me from here on out" after he was suspended? It may have been Jefferson. Can't stand LSU, and that didn't help any.

In coverage definitely, he just has a high motor. He won't get drafted for his coverage though.

I dont really think so. He is like Tony Jefferson but better. Not by a whole lot, but enough to notice.

All the talk about Cornbread and Pork and Beans made me hungry. Guess I'll fix some Popcorn Shrimp. Yeah, that sounds like me.

Yep. Something about there being an 'I' in team. Lost all respect for him right there.


overrated

I thought so too at first. But the dude is a gamer. Just by his punt returns alone in the SEC Championship, I started to think of him as not overrated.
