I think it's probable at this point that staylor is actually Phillip Gaines.

I'm done with this argument. Believe whatever the **** you want to believe, just know that when Gaines hits his stride, I'll be here to tell you I told you so.

Most of the time i don't agree with Clay and Inmen. But you know what, sometimes, THEY'RE RIGHT. **gasp** And PFF is a resource used by professionals....so...great argument you have there. Again, PFF is a TOOL. Do you understand how to use various tools to make an evaluation rather than just your homer eye test?

Gaines needs to be mentored by Deion. He's the greatest corner of all-time, surely he's an expert on being the perfect tackling corner.

![]() The point is, the greatest corner of all-time was admittedly a weak tackler that made "buisness decisions". It's just an example of how ridiculous it is to overemphasize tackling when evaluating a corner, especially based on a handful of plays in their first few games back from an ACL tear. |

Again, my concerns have already been validated.
We've already seen it. My concerns have already been fleshed out in real games. You know what that means? That means you have no argument, because mine has ALREADY BEEN VALIDATED. You can't argue against it, ![]() It's right ****ing there.

The good news is, tackling is something that can be taught, if you've got the nuts to want to tackle. Gaines seems like a willing tackler, for the most part.
He's a third rounder coming off an ACL tear. Considering what or how I thought this secondary would be, I've been pleasantly surprised. I still contend that tackling for a cornerback is down the list of things he has to be good at. Give me a guy that can be a great cover corner and an average at best tackler than vice versa. |

For every position there are certain abilities that you have to be baseline competent at to succeed, if you're good at other more important ones.
Like a qb has to be able to read the field, pocket presense etc above arm strength. There's a baseline arm strength that you've gotta have in the league to play qb, and being above it is great. But as we've seen on numerous occasions, arm strength for a qb isn't a top of the list importance. |

I've honestly lost track of how many times QBs have doinked throws right off of Gaines back and head, he is almost always that close to his assignment... you almost never see a receiver clown him and break 5 yards free of him
Thats much more important to me than him being some monster tackler |
