As I predicted Dre also ranked in the top 32 in "success rate"

FootballOutsiders does not rank CBs on "completion percentage allowed, but by looking at the lists I could calculate this stat for 70 of the 75 qualifying CBs.  Dre ranked 19th which means that at the absolute worst he would be 24th of 75.

Dre ranked 19th in passes defended.

On the down side he was one of the worst tacklers in the league.  Despite finishing 3rd in solo tackles by a CB his percentage of "broken tackles" was 8th worst in the league.

But in just coverage it is clear that he is one of the better CBs in the league....18th in yards allowed per target....19th in passes defended.......19th to 24th in completion% allowed......32nd in success rate.

Kudos, You are the research guru and really have cemented the misconception that Dre is a bust or subpar...
