Good point BEG. Play some mind games with them, I like it!

Champ is a great corner, one of the best in the game. But... he's not a game changing corner in the same mold of Deion. That's why I can't justify giving him a monster contract. He does do a great job at shutting down his side of the field, but when was the last time he took a pick back for a TD?? The last time I remember was his rookie season in Arizona. I thought Darrell Green had some bad hands, how many picks has Champ flat out dropped over the years?? Too many to even count.

For the kind of money Denver is giving him, they can have him.

He never stepped up as a team leader in his time here either. I think that's one of the reasons the front office choose to go with Arrington as the franchise defender.

I hate lose Champ only because he was one of my favorite Skins, but hey, I'll get over it. With a good defensive pass rush, the corners won't have to cover for so long and we'll probably get more interceptions from the pressure too. Hope the deal goes through.
