Steve Smith smacks Clements on radio and Bentley.

[ICE74129]

Steve Smith was on the radio earlier and nailed Clements. He said that Nate isnt as good as he thinks he is. Steve said a lot of corners think they are good but they always have safety help or more. He said Nate was one of those guys.

Smith stated who he felt the top corners were . He had Champ Bailey, Dre Bly, Delta O'Neil for starters. He also said Fred Smoot was the most overrated.

Sounds to me the better WR's think 'the Playmaker' is over rated. Note: we had THREE guys on smith and Seattle had 4. When you are so damn good you draw that kind of attention....you can say what the hell you want about DB's in this league



Earlier LeCharles Bently (Center from New Orleans) Was on and said he definately won't be back in New Orleans and will test the market. He says Cleveland is clearly his top choice BUT, with Buffalo only being a short jump away, and if we can offer up some serious jack....

I hope we sign him.

I wonder how good Nate could be again if we play him in bump-and-run like he was meant to play instead of 8-10 yards off the LOS every damn play

Steve smith would take him to school. Sorry man, Nate isn't as great as he THINKS he is. Smith would own him.

[The_Philster]

possibly...but no CB is going to succeed if he's playing off the ball like Gray has had a habit of having his CBs do

Get a solid DL and Clements will be back to being one of the top cbs.

Then get ready for dissapointment. The cover 2 dictates your CB's are 8 yards off and 2 yards in from the LOS. And we know levy wants the cover two.

Clements has never been a Great CB. Gets beat one on one, Gives up too many stupid plays. Too worried about himself.

Clements isn't worth the money and NO CB is. NO CB in this league is worth QB money and that is what they are getting. Pay nate, you can't better the DL.

Bentley kicked arse at OSU and i would love to see him in a bills uniform as well.

[Saratoga Slim]

Bentley would be an excellant pick-up. How is Cleveland set at C? Are they going to be interested?

[Devin]

Jeff Faine I think is their center.

Or he was anyway dont know if he still is.

[Kerr]

I believe Jeff Faine is currently their starter. Next to Andruzzi, he was probably their best lineman. I'm not sure. I hope we can land Bentley though.

[Novacane]

I agree with Steve Smith

[patmoran2006]

i dont know why bentley would think Clev.. THey got Jeff Faine.

As for Steve Smith, he owned EVERYBODY this year.

Nate is a good CB.. NOT GREAT.. Give him a better front seven and he'd be better, just like any other decent corner.. He's a step above "decent" but not in same league as the game's best.

The only problem is nate has a big mouth and wants big time money. I'm not sure Marv will see him worth keeping around especially if they're implementing a cover 2 scheme, which makes a lot of corners look better than they really are. If that's the case, we probably aren't desperate to retain clements.

[ZacGriffi~82]

Faine has underachieved and is very incosistent.

[Tatonka]

chad johnson said nate was the 2nd best in the league..

i hear chad johnson is a pretty good wr too.

cleveland has no need for bentley at all.

[Tatonka]

faine is still making first round money.. they are not sending him packing.

[DynaPaul]

A good defensive line can make an average cornerback look great.

[Kerr]

A good defensive line can make an average cornerback look great.

Don't forget a scheme as well.

[ICE74129]

A good defensive line can make an average cornerback look great.

Which is even more reason to NOT pay nate top money. Spend the money on the DL and see how good our corners get.
