Dre was #18 in yards per target
Dre was #19 in passes defended
Dre was #3 in solo tackles
Dre was between #18 and #24 in pass completion allowed

The #3 CB now plays more than 50% of the snaps for pretty much every team in the league. the rankings I quote include 75 CBs who either had 8 starts or 50 targets.

We have a top 32 CB playing #2 for us. How many other teams in the league can make that claim?
Seriously, you squeal for Dre to be replaced, but he is better than many #1 CBs and almost all the #2's. You just do not have realistic expectations. It is not even close to "average" to have a top 32 CB as the #2 Cb on any team.
