Wilson is faster and has better cover skills IMO. Also more big play ability than Foxworth AND he also has Special Teams value. He's also younger and would cost less. [b]I'd rather have Wilson.[/b][/quote]

me too!

He also did this with his front 7 getting more pressure then Seattles did and playing with a secondary where also had mroe help on the back end and could afford to take more chances.<br /><br />The same year Wilson had 42 tackles, 1 sack, 2 picks for 125 yards the longest being a 65 yard touchdown(however both times he got the ball in his hands he scored).  He did this without a pass rush or the back end help we have.<br /><br />The year before when fox did so well that we decided to sign him we will again turn to numbers.<br /><br />Foxy: 31 tackles, 11 pass deflections, 1 pick for one yard.<br />Wilson: 69 tackles, 9 pass deflections, 4 picks for one 135 yards one for a 75 yard TD. And he was a second year corner, while foxy was in his third year when CB's are supposed to hit their stride.<br /><br />That season is the most telling story because both ATL and SEA defense were almost identical in every statistical category.<br /><br />So I guess that is the breakdown in the two years before last ( I didnt count it because the injury to foxy obviously.) In the 3 years wilson and foxy have been playing at the same time in two of them wilson dominates the stats and he is by far the better playmaker.  All thye numbers are on NFL website so the numbers say wilson is the better corner and playmaker.<br />[/quote]


I'm a stat guy, love my numbers, but using stats to compare CBs is a bit dicey...how does the saying go? The 3 types of lies are lies, damn lies and stats..
Personally I think Foxy and Wilson are about even, but one thing about Wilson is that he is more of a playmaker and probably has a higher ceiling. If money is the same, I think there's little question Wilson is a better long term solution, due to age and now we have to wonder how Foxy is going to bounce back after that injury..,,,,,,,,

I agree but the question was presented to me to make a case and defend my opinion that wilson was the better CB. I did bring up playmaking, but I did like how you threw out the fact that wilson has a higher ceiling. All I was saying is that Fox gets paid way to much to be a #3 CB.
