So is Finnegan a better CB than Bartell was when healthy? I know he likes to get in the face of WR's, but not sure of his pure CB ability. If so I'm stoked. This is hella fun Ram bros!!!!!!
Id say he has better ball skills than Bartell.
Well, to the tune of 3 INTs in the last 2 years. Bartell might be better suited to cover the NFC West style bigger receivers (Fitzgerald, Crabtree, Rice). But Finnegan is scrappy and a battler. Sometimes literally.
And I really like the presence Finnegan brings to this D. I thought Brandon Carr was the best CB on the market, especially factoring in his age, but Finnegan made the most sense for us. He had 10 INTs in 08 and 09, Fishers last 2 seasons in Tennessee. I also think he has cleaned up on his on-field tactics. I dont think hes gotten in trouble since the fight with Andre Johnson.
