Not only is he getting his hands on balls in coverage, but he's getting there and making that quarterback claustrophobic when he (blitzes). So he's a pretty complete guy.

He's a great player, still has some really good years left in him. He's quietly confident. He's not going to sit up here and say he was happy about Ferguson coming in to replace him.

You have coverage, but you might not have the right coverage.

Sometimes you get that little brother syndrome. A lot of that is bringing them into the fold. You've got to have the same goals in reverse order.

Obviously, we feel it's a great fit for our team. He's a proven player, a leader, and a student of the game.

I think that has a lot to do with a persona that kind of wills the team. His teammates respond to his leadership. I think that's kind of what separates him from a lot of the people in the draft.
