Like who? Jerry Rice? Marvin Harrison?
How many of these top guys face top wideouts?

Marlin Jackson played against, and shut down, former first round draft picks like Roy Williams and Reggie Williams. This year Jackson held the Big 10's career leading receiver Stubblefield to one reception for 10 yards. Lining up every day in practice the last few years against Braylon Edwards can't hurt either.
Corners in strong conferences like the SEC get tested much more often than someone like Jones.

Q: Herm, back on December 25th you were asked if Trent Green was your starter going into next season and you said, ‘yeah, why wouldn’t he be?’ Have you changed your mind on that?
EDWARDS: No, I have not.”
