Yes they do. CB is one of the most valuable position on the defense and teams kill to find a legit #1 starting CB. 22 CBs have been drafted in the first round the last 5 years and consider themselves lucky when one of them becomes a #1 level CB.

Much more valid criteria than message board rabble. Home team fans always over exaggerate the bad plays of their own players. That is why so many people here think no other CBs in the league ever get beat. the fact is that when you look at what every CB does in every game Dre actually performs better than most other CBs in the league.
he played 97% of the snaps on a top 5 pass defense, and he often lined up against the opposing #1 WR. If every other CB in the league was as much better than Dre as you claim then no WER in the league would have a 1000 yard season.
