6-10 range, top 10.

Adam is one of the best with his passion, speed, tackling and the fact that Offenses don't target him as much.

Kirkpatrick is mediocre though and gets targeted for this reason. Really needs to step up or i believe Dennard, WJ3 or
Shaw is going to take his job sooner or later. I like all of these guys upside more than Dre as well, but until they start a
better player opposite Adam we are just top 10.

Could be much better on down the line with these young guys.

[Benton]

Kind of a tough one.

If I'm remembering right, we were bottom 10 in yards allowed, but top five in turnovers and second best in TDs allowed.

I'd say 13th (ish).

[Goalpost]

No worse than 6-10. Maybe I am biased, but talent wise we got four first rounders here.

[MasonDT70]

1 legitimately good CB and a lot of potential. Probably around 12th.

[*Go Cards*]

Above average with lots of room for growth.

Could end up being top 5 elite before it is said and done this year though.

[Jpoore]

I think if we moved denard to the outside as corner number 2 ands put Kirkpatrick as number 3 in the slot it would be numbers 3 but how it is now 6-10 my reasoning? Kirkpatrick has way faster hips which is what you need to be a slot CB but fails on back pedaling while denard imo would excel as an outside corner... Why not try it? Can't be worse that kirkpatrick

[jeremydc]

11-14 at the moment. Potentially 6-10 by season's end.

[wolfkaosaun]

Top 10 in the league but still has question marks.

Adam Jones plays at a high level. Will Kirkpatrick improve? How will Dennard do? Will Shaw and WJIII get playing time?

There's so much talent in that group. It has every chance to be the best in the league based off of talent alone. But they need to play to their potential to become top 5.

[BengalChris]

I choose 1-5, not because of the individual talents or lack there of, but because as a unit they play extremely well and hold opposing QBs to low QB ratings consistently.

If they play to their potential, they'll be the top set of CBs in the league.

[*bengalfan74*]

Tough One

I mean on paper they should be among the best in the league. But Adam Jones isn't getting any younger, Kirkpatrick is wildly inconsistent, Dennard still hasn't got enough snaps to really judge much. WJIII may well be at top CB in the making but how soon will that translate to the field ? DB's typically take a season to get up to the speed of the pro game.

I voted 6 - 10 just because four #1 draft picks should at least give you that. We could be one of the top units in the league. And then again maybe not ??

[*Nate (formerly eliminate08)*]

In the end Iloka and Reggie really helped our CB's a lot. We had a great Secondary but Reggie honestly seemed to
lose a little ground last year tackling and George has a tough time staying healthy. Shawn i believe will fill in very
well for Reggie especially in the tackling department.

Carrier be good.

Coyle has always been good to great IMHO.

Great having Kevin Coyle back.
