1. The flag.
2. The dramatic "look at me I made a basic play", even if the guy just dropped it or it was a horrible throw.
3. The dramatic "The WR fouled me" tantrum after a big gain.
If Dre K put out as much energy contesting the actual throw and catch as he does crying to the officials in disbelief I would think he'd be a good player. Other teams PICK ON HIM AND IT WORKS. That says it all to me.
- In comparison, Adam Jones is clearly a 1st round CB and possesses gifted abilities and acumen for the game. Dre K has not shown even an Adam Jones' nuttsack full of talent in comparison.
I think that Shaw has a ton of upside. Dennard I am not sure about. I hope he can last a whole season at some point.

Last I heard PFF (which admittedly isn't the end-all-be-all of judgement, but is a good reference material) had him only having two positively graded games all year. He's also a terrible tackler.
Said it 4 years ago when they first made the pick, will say it now. Kid's a bust. Hopefully Dennard shows some more next year when he gets a chance to start.
Dre can't be a good CB when he has to spend all that time pissing in your wheaties
