He's consistently the weak link opposing QB's target in coverage, outside of our shittiest coverage linebacker (historically Niemann). Once Gay is back from IR, I fully expect Ward to be targeted 5-10 times per game.
He's not Philip Gaines bad, but he's not "good", either.

There are 60 starting CBs in this league. Closer to 80 when you look at the amount of Nickel being run and injury needs.
Ward is in that top 40-50 range. He's not a lock-down guy but he's a solid player. If he's the weakest link on your defense, you've got a pretty damn good defense.
