No offense, but telling "how"? WJ3 was just another first round pick who flashed and can hold down a position, but never lived up to that "superstar" potential he drafted to be. The team gave him 5 years, I'm alright with them letting him walk. May he find greener pastures in DC.
As for Alexander, yes, he performed well. However, I think that Mike Hilton is a serious upgrade from Alexander. Not just from a coverage standpoint, but from all of the pass rushing, body sacrificing tackles, and general "right place, right time" traits that he brings to the position. He's technically a corner, but he plays like he's a Safety. FWIW, several of my Steeler fan friends are grieving that Pittsburgh didn't retain him.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
