He's ok. He's no Dale Carter or anything

i dont like the idea of sliding him down to cover the slot
mainly because a) now we dont have any CBs on the roster that can cover the slot besides probably him and b) if he covers the slot, that leaves two burn victims having to cover the outside, rather than just one at CB2 with Flowers at his normal spot at CB1. it's really a double edged sword, damned if you do damned if you dont hes also usually hobbled by injuries and plays half the season hurt, having him go over the middle covering the slot he is more prone to getting lit up by dumb short passes where the o-line can release or a big WR comes across and hits him as hes trying to cover a drag (i.e him covering Welker for a 6 yard dump pass and Decker or Thomas come over and smash him on a pick blindly). Rather than just have him covering deep streaks, posts, etc on the outside. |

He's awesome. It's the other side we need to think about.

Only thing I want to see from him is more interceptions. Like it's been said already teams like to pick on the other side so he doesn't get to many opportunities. I wouldn't put him in the category of "shutdown" corners, but he is a good corner.

ya, love to watch him play -- he's a scrappy smart player, but not quite athletic enough to shut the speedsters down.

Brandon Flowers jams DC go-go. Ergo, Flowers is headed to the Pro Bowl this year,

He needs to step up his game. He's good, but the entire secondary (including Flowers) was dogshit last season. Chiefs need him to be great. Personally I'm not too high on the Robinson and Smith signings, although it needed to be done. Personally I think we paid the wrong Brandon.
Hopefully the front 7 help out and we can get to the QB a lot quicker, that always helps.

Brandon Flowers should come away with extra picks this year with the blitzes we are going to do. Quarterbacks are going start pressing and getting rid of the ball early and one thing BF is good at is getting a jump on the ball.
